Huge zoo for a casual stroll located in a forest, large variety of animals (including elephants, tigers, seals and bisons) on spacious enclosures. Long distances may be a bit boring or tough on children. Zoo became popular for its focus on animal welfare and protection. You can access it also with park train (see below). Avoid restaurants inside zoo though, they are quite bad.
