Entertainment & Activities

Based very close to the centre (a walk over the bridge away), in a lovely, large park. Over the past 20 years it has been modernised and updated to provide good conditions to its residents. Elephants, lions, tigers, chimpanzees, giraffes, anteaters. Birds, snakes, fish - you name it.
