One of India's oldest zoos, located in Ram Niwas Garden, featuring separate sections for mammals, birds, and a Ghariyal breeding center.
Located within the green expanse of Ram Niwas Garden, Jaipur Zoo is one of the oldest zoological parks in India. The space is divided into two distinct sections: one for mammals and the other for birds and reptiles. As you walk through the pathways, you will see a variety of animal enclosures. The mammal section is home to species like tigers, leopards, hyenas, and several types of deer including Sambar and Chital. The separate bird and reptile section, which is a short walk away, features a collection of native and migratory birds. A significant part of this section is the Ghariyal breeding farm, which plays a role in the conservation of this critically endangered crocodile species. The environment is straightforward, with simple enclosures and plenty of trees providing shade. It's a place where families, especially those with children, can spend a couple of hours observing animals in a central city location.
