Bandung Zoo, Zoo in Bandung City, Indonesia.
Bandung Zoo occupies grounds within Jubileum Park and presents a wide collection of animals in areas designed to resemble natural habitats. The site divides into several sections with enclosures of different sizes, from small aviaries to open spaces for larger residents.
The institution formed in the early 1930s by merging two smaller zoological facilities from surrounding neighborhoods to create a shared location for animal care. This fusion brought animal populations from different sites to a central point within the growing city.
The zoo provides educational programs where visitors learn about Indonesian wildlife species and participate in guided tours focused on local conservation initiatives.
The entrance sits on the northern edge of the park, and most enclosures can be reached on foot within a few hours. For older visitors or families with small children, the shaded paths along main routes offer benches for rest.
Some animal species in the park come from rescue efforts where injured or orphaned animals were taken in after they could not survive in the wild. These programs have helped supplement the population through local initiatives over the decades.
