Over
Korte feiten: Home to Snowflake the albino gorilla for nearly 40 years, this was the only place in the world where you could see a pure white primate. Spread across 13 hectares in the heart of the city, the zoo houses over 2,000 animals representing 300 species from every continent.
Hoogtepunten: The zoo's primate collection includes one of Europe's most successful breeding programs for Western lowland gorillas, with multiple generations born right here. During feeding times, you can watch the troop interact in complex social dynamics that researchers have been documenting for decades.
Insidertips
- Visit the reptile house midday when the heat lamps make cold-blooded residents most active and visible.
- The best photo opportunity is the walk-through aviary where birds fly freely just inches above your head.
- Skip the overpriced on-site restaurants and pack a picnic to enjoy in the adjacent Ciutadella Park instead.
- Weekend afternoons are jam-packed with local families; plan your visit for Tuesday through Thursday mornings for the quietest experience.
