Taman Safari Bali, Safari park and zoo in Gianyar, Indonesia
Taman Safari Bali is a zoo and wildlife park spread across 40 hectares with sections designed to mimic natural animal habitats. The facility houses over 1000 animals representing more than 120 species, and guests can tour the grounds by safari bus or watch animal performances.
The park opened in 2007 as the third location of the Taman Safari Group in Indonesia, bringing wildlife conservation efforts to Bali. This expansion helped establish zoo operations across different regions of the country.
The park blends Balinese spiritual traditions through a temple dedicated to Hindu practices, and visitors can watch local dance performances in the theater during their visit. These cultural elements are woven into the daily rhythm of the zoo experience.
The park sits about 17 kilometers from Denpasar and is best explored by the safari bus tours available throughout the day for comfortable animal viewing. Dining, shows, and accommodations are available on site, making it easy to spend several hours or stay longer.
The Tsavo Lion Restaurant offers an unusual dining experience where guests watch lions and meerkats through glass walls while eating their meals. This close proximity to animals during dining is uncommon in most zoo settings.
