Prague Zoological Garden is situated near the center of the Czech capital, in a unique rugged landscape on the bank of the Vltava River. It opened in 1931 and during its existence of more than 80 years it has risen to become one of the most prestigious zoos in the world. Today, it is the second most visited tourist destination in the Czech Republic, just after Prague Castle. 5,049 animals and 676 species live in Prague Zoo. You can explore 13 pavilions and 150 exhibits over 58 hectares. The kids will love the Bororo Reserve, chairlift, mini-train, observation tower, paddling pool and Children’s Zoo. The pride of the zoo is its Elephant Valley, home to a sizeable herd of Asian elephants. The Giant Salamander House, where you can see the largest amphibians in the world – the critically endangered Chinese Giant Salamanders – is extraordinary as well; and the African House with an adjacent vast meadow inhabited by herds of antelopes and giraffes is worth your attention, too.

A great day, discount tickets (over 60) we got there and first saw the polar bear happily swimming around, and next enjoyed the Hippos swimming and playing, the elephants were sunning themselves, the giant tortoises were stamping around, but most impressive were the feeding lions and tigers, inside on display up close through the armoured glass. There were penguins, vultures, mountain goats, giraffes, but our highlight were the lions and tigers Fully recommended

We've been going there for the last few years with our kids. They love the zoo. Not big, though. Not a place to spend a few hours but the trip is worthwhile (outside major cities and motorways). Not an expert myself but you can see a wide selection of parrots and the staff seem ready to discuss or consult anything you would like to know. You can also have a rest in a small cafe or visit a gift shop. But remember they don't accept credit cards.

A really well done zoo with many very modern exhibits. The clear highlight is the enormous sun bear enclosure which is beautifully done, has many different viewing opportunities and is one of the best I have ever seen. Their two young sun bears Adam and Aja are very active and show really well to the public and who I was fortunate enough to enjoy hand feeding. There has clearly been a lot of recent investment into building the zoo up and it has been done wonderfully. It is exceptionally attractive. The Hokkaido garden is very picturesque and Africa and Australia sections are really nice. The collection is good, especially with regards to small cat species. This is a really great zoo.

We are the largest zoological garden in the Czech Republic. We specialize in breeding animals from the Palearctic realm, which covers the whole of Europe, the northern part of Asia, and the north of Africa, including the Sahara. We raise more than a thousand animals from almost 160 species, that also include fifteen endangered species registered in the European Endangered Species Programme. The zoological garden offers numerous activities for children, from a petting zoo, where you will find a number of climbing frames, to the Lanáček rope climbing centre and the very popular Amálka zoo train.
