Where should I go in the area London?

London Zoo is definitely worth a visit, being the world's oldest scientific zoo!

All the way back in 1828 was when the zoo first opened and it was originally intended to be used as a collection for scientific study but then fast forward to 1847, the zoo was opened to the public and has been a longstanding hit ever since.

There are a few different routes to take when you visit the zoo so be sure to pick the route that’s right for you so you don’t miss out and get to see your favourite animal. The pink route has the likes of giraffes and zebras, the blue route will give you the chance to see some penguins and lions and the green route features gorillas and tigers. Each route has many more animals to see so more than one visit to the zoo might be the best way to see this animal kingdom to its fullest.

Some of the different exhibits at London Zoo include:

  1. Gorilla Kingdom
  2. Butterfly Paradise
  3. African Bird Safari
  4. Meet The Monkeys
  5. Into Africa
  6. Human Zoo
  7. Komodo Dragons

London Zoo offers exciting opportunities for close contact experiences with some of their animals so be sure to have a look online at their website if this is something you’re interested in. There is also plenty of food options at the zoo so you can make a real day of the experience.
