Kudykina Gora, Safari park in Lipetsk Oblast, Russia
The park stretches across 500 hectares of land, featuring open spaces where animals roam freely among natural landscapes and dedicated recreational zones.
Established in 2007, this park introduced a new concept of animal observation in Russia by creating large enclosures where visitors can watch wildlife in natural conditions.
The park incorporates elements of Russian folklore through its architectural designs and themed areas, including a three-headed dragon sculpture that moves and breathes fire.
Visitors can reach the park by taking a train to Yelets from Moscow or Saint Petersburg, followed by a bus ride to Zadonsk and a short taxi journey.
The park maintains a collection of both domestic and exotic animals, allowing guests to observe lions, tigers, and giraffes in a climate-controlled environment.
