Animals from all over the world
The City Zoo features one of Eastern Europe’s best animal collections with more than 2000 animals on display and has an important conservation and research centre with breeding programmes for endangered native and exotic species.
The beautiful park is an oasis of calm with old trees, shrubs and flower beds. There is an "Animals in action show" twice a day, a petting zoo for close encounter with tame animals, spectacular settings representing the African savannah, the artic area, and the wetland habitats, and a farm of ancient Hungarian livestock: swallow bellied woolly pigs, bold necked hens, spotted cattle, mudi dogs, cikta sheep, hucul horse. The internationally famous zoo is 130 years old and its buildings have been designed by the best Hungarian architects of the century in art noveau and national style.
