Description
Experience the green oasis in the heart of the city at Antwerp ZOO. Spend the day exploring the zoo, listening to keeper talks, observing exotic animals, and kids will love the playground.
Explore the historic Antwerp ZOO, an outdoor experience where exotic animals roam. Enjoy keeper talks and feeding time, and discover a world of wildlife. Antwerp ZOO, established in 1843, is not only the oldest animal park in the country but one of the oldest in the world.
Initially designed to foster zoological and botanical sciences, the zoo continues to serve this purpose while offering a blend of recreation, education, science, and culture. Antwerp ZOO is a fantastic family-friendly day out in Antwerp.
While exploring the ZOO, encounter various exhibits and species, including Vriesland, Aquaforum, a renovated reptile house, an over-a-century-old aquarium, Savannah Aviary, Egyptian Temple,, Hippotopia, Bearcanyon, and more. The park is a haven for wildlife enthusiasts.
The zoo boasts over 10.5 hectares, and together with its sister park, Planckendael, Antwerp ZOO is home to more than 7,000 animals spanning approximately 950 species.
In the Valley of the Great Apes, the young gorillas play, and at the Egyptian Temple, male elephants measure each other's strength. Stroll through the Buffalo Savannah with its colorful birds. Giraffes, zebras, and white rhinos graze and laze on their savanna. And the lions...they romp, just like the little ones in the nearby playground.
