Loved the feeling of being in the nature rather than the feeling of being in a Zoo. Range of interesting animals and well taken care of. They have an animal show which my kids loved and a train for visitors to hop on/off. Worth a visit! More

A truly brilliant day out and a really great zoo for families. Great selection of animals with real variety and superb enclosures. The value for money is just phenomenal where you can get entry for a family of 4 for under $30! Get down there! More

Animal sanctuary in the outskirts of the city. My aunt used to live in Taman Melawati, bordering the zoo. She said she could even hear the animals at night and feels like she's living out in the Safari More

I didn't even know they have lions in... More
