About

Copenhagen Zoo, located in Frederiksberg, is one of Europe's oldest zoological gardens, established in 1859. Home to over 4,000 animals representing more than 240 species, the zoo offers visitors an immersive experience across various global habitats. A standout feature is the Arctic Ring, where guests can observe polar bears swimming overhead through a unique underwater tunnel. The zoo's Elephant House, designed by renowned architect Sir Norman Foster, provides a spacious and naturalistic environment for Asian elephants. In the African Savannah section, visitors can encounter giraffes, zebras, and rhinoceroses in settings that mimic their native landscapes. The Tropical Zoo offers a lush rainforest experience with free-flying birds and exotic reptiles. For families, the Children's Zoo allows for close interactions with domestic animals like goats and rabbits, while the 43.5-meter-high wooden Zoo Tower offers panoramic views of Copenhagen. With its blend of historical charm and modern exhibits, Copenhagen Zoo provides an engaging and educational experience for all ages.
