Zoo

The zoo is 2- 3 km's from the city centre, up in a river gorge, where the escarpment climbs steeply away from the river. She occupies a lush river valley, with the rocky cliff faces and rolling meadows at the summit, providing for a stunning vista.

The walk around the zoo is complex, and the map is less helpful than it might be, but there is a lot to see here. It's a traditional collection, of course, so expect to see penguins, sea lions, lions, tigers, and elephants, and you won't be disappointed. But you might not expect Markhor, and Ibex - superbly held in mountain enclosures that could scarcely be better designed for them. The grazers at the top of the hill are magnificent. And the views are spectacular.
