Gazipur Safari Park, Safari park and zoo in Gazipur, Bangladesh

Gazipur Safari Park is a wildlife facility in Bangladesh where animals roam across forests and hilly terrain in large, open areas. The site includes sections designed for different viewing methods, with pathways and vehicle routes that let visitors move through the grounds.

The project was approved in 2010 at a cost of 63.99 crore taka, and construction began on 2 February 2011. A revised plan, costing 219.89 crore taka, was approved on 4 October 2011. The park opened to visitors on 31 October 2013. After the July 2024 uprising, it was closed for three months and eleven days, then reopened on 15 November 2024 under the name Gazipur Safari Park.

The park's name changed from Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujib Safari Park to Gazipur Safari Park on 15 November 2024, after the July Revolution and the fall of Sheikh Hasina's government; the main gate nameplate had been vandalised. The park was closed for 3 months and 11 days during the unrest. Visitors today ride authorised buses through the Core Safari zone, where 1,335 acres are divided by species: 20 acres for tiger, 21 for lion, 8.5 for black bear, 105 for elephant.

The park is easiest to reach from Dhaka by using long-distance buses heading toward northern areas, then switching to local transport for the final stretch. Your visit works best if you arrive early when animals are most active and temperatures are cooler.

The Core Safari zone covers 1,335 acres and is divided by species: 20 acres for tigers, 21 for lions, 8.5 for black bears, 8 for African cheetahs, 105 for elephants, 35 for hippos and 407 for buffalo. Only authorised buses may enter, so visitors view the animals from inside the vehicle.
