Central park zoo & resort 20, Zoo and resort complex in Deli Serdang, Indonesia.
Central Park Zoo & Resort 20 is a large leisure complex in Deli Serdang, North Sumatra, combining a zoo, a waterpark, an aquarium, and bird enclosures on one site. Accommodation is available within the grounds, so visitors can stay overnight and access all areas without leaving the property.
The site started as a basic zoo and was gradually extended with a waterpark, an aquarium, and resort facilities as visitor numbers grew. This step-by-step expansion turned the original animal park into a multi-area holiday destination.
The buildings across the site draw on traditional construction styles from North Sumatra, using wood and bamboo in ways that recall local village architecture. This is most visible along the covered walkways that connect the animal areas.
Coming early in the day gives you a better chance of seeing the animals at their most active, and the paths tend to be quieter in the morning. The grounds cover a large area, so comfortable shoes and enough water for a few hours of walking are worth bringing.
A tunnel network runs beneath parts of the grounds, with rock formations along the walls and netting overhead, linking different animal sections. This underground route lets you move from one zone to the next without retracing your steps.
