Basel Zoo, located right in the city center - it is a magnificent 12 acres of parkland. The animals can be seen in it, rather, because they want to show themselves, and not because the cages are arranged so that the animals were kept in sight. This is done deliberately in order to stimulate the imagination of visitors, so they stayed longer and get as many pleasant experiences that will be remembered for years to come.

All necessary information about the zoo can be found on the boards at the common entrance and the entrance to each territory. For example, the zoo has a special area where you can watch the young animals, and on the board at the entrance to the posted information about who can be seen on this day.

Visit Basel Zoo - an unforgettable experience in any weather and time of year. In the spring where you can watch as nature wakes up, born and growing up young animals, which children can become intimately familiar in a special section of the zoo. On a hot summer day in the shade of spreading trees can be a long time to watch the elephants and learn the next of kin of people - primates, in the winter - to plunge into the mysterious world of coral reefs and the Amazon River in a heated vivarium enjoy the interactive exhibition in cages for lions.

The zoo allowed to shoot still and video cameras in all areas and areas other than those where there is the announcement of a ban on filming. The enclosures are designed in such a way that you can make great shots close-up, with the fences will not spoil the picture.
