Zoological Park

Location

This is the first zoological park in India. It is situated in the centre of a perfect botanical garden. The animals are kept in natural habitat surroundings. Rare animals include the Nilgiri Tahr, the Asian Lion, the Bengal tiger, etc. The zoo has a good snake park housing varieties of snakes. The snakes are also given the feeling of a natural habitat. The botanical garden has huge trees such as jacaranda and frangipani.

The lawns and the garden almost resemble a small jungle in the core of the city. Being the first zoo in India and as it is well maintained even today it is indeed worth visiting.
