It uses an art system that reduces energy wastage.\u00a0 The small rainforest has over 40 species of vertebrates. Tourists use a treetop walkway to have a birds-eye view of the mini rain forest.\u00a0 It is a home of snakes, chameleons, parrots, turtles, and geckos. No worries, the snakes are in the terrarium.

Lewa Savannah\u00a0<\/strong><\/h2><p>The Lewa Savannah section is the largest area in Z\u00fcrich Zoo and was opened in 2020. It has a goal to give people an African safari experience and to make them aware of protecting animals. Lewa savannah has in total 15 species such as giraffes, ostriches, zebras, hyenas, antelopes, white rhinoceros, and meerkats and trees like the African baobab.<\/p><p>Furthermore, the zoo offers exciting special events like the so-called Night Walk in the Lewa Savannah. You can see what happens when the zoo closes and wander through the savannah, have dinner in the wilderness and spend the night in safari time. Breakfast is also included. These events are very popular and book up quickly.<\/p><p>The Lewa Savannah was one of the most expensive projects of within the animal park which cost 55 Million CHF and could be realised with donations.<\/p><p>The elephants are not in the Lewa Savannah, but in the Kaeng Kachen <a href=\"https:\/\/www.myswitzerland.com\/en-ch\/experiences\/elephant-park-zoo-zurich-more-room-for-the-biggest-animals\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Elephant Park<\/a>.

Mongolian steppe\u00a0<\/strong><\/h2><p>The Mongolian steppe in the Z\u00fcrich Zoo was established in 2015 and covered a section of 7300 Square meters. It has cashmere goats, yaks, and camels. You can take part in activities like riding a camel, expeditions, and guided tours. Night walking is also possible here.<\/p><h2><strong>4). Australian Complex\u00a0<\/strong><\/h2><p>The Australian complex was set up in 2018 and was previously known as the African house. The enclosure has native animals from Australia. Some of them are koalas, kangaroos, and emus.<\/p><p>But the facility shows visitors as well which animals and plants are threatened in Australia. That is why Zurich Zoo also supports a nature conservation project in Australia.<\/p><h2><strong>5). Aquarium\u00a0<\/strong><\/h2><p>The aquarium has 85 species of fish and more than 1500 aquatic animals. Fish lovers can learn the types of fish and watch them closely. Diverse habitats such as the Amazon, the Indo-Pacific or rivers in Madagascar are represented in the Aquarium of Zoo Z\u00fcrich. Corals that have been bred also live in the 8 basins.<\/p><h2><strong>6). Zoolino\u00a0<\/strong><\/h2><p>The Zoolino is an area where children and adults are allowed to interact directly with animals. Some animals include goats, dwarf rabbits, Guinea pigs, wild turkeys, Ilama, Brahma chicken, Perkin, and pygmy. Besides, visitors can feed them.<br \/>For children, the Zoolino is a very cool experience and a great way to learn about the animals and nature.<\/p><h2><strong>7). Restaurants Zurich Zoo<\/strong><\/h2><p>There are many restaurants at Zurich Zoo where you can get meals and refreshments. The most common one is the Thai lodge in the elefants park and is opened on Sundays for brunch and thai lunch. It costs 54CHF for every adult and is very popular, so you need to make a reservation.<\/p><p>But there are many other restaurants where you can eat or enjoy refreshing drinks. Many of them have a beautiful view over the Zoo Zurich. You will also find other restaurants nearby, nevertheless, I highly recommend due to the great experience to eat there.<\/p><h2><strong>How to get to Zurich zoo\/entry prices<\/strong><\/h2><p>There are ways to reach the zoo from Zurich mainstation. It can be easily accessed by train or a number 6 tram, which takes 45 minutes.\u00a0 Alternatively, you can drive or take a taxi which will take less than 20minutes.<\/p><p>Interesting: The entrance fee for an adult person was 1CHF in 1929. More than 90 years later, an adult pays 28CHF, 28 times more (Date: 7.3.201). Kids pay 14CHF, while teens between 16 and 20 years pay 23CHF. Please note that the\u00a0 ticket is cheaper online than at the box office. At the zoo ticket office you pay CHF 1 more per person.<\/p><p>By the way, there is a 40% discount on tickets for the last 90 minutes before closing time.
