Varna Zoo, Wildlife conservation center in Sea Garden, Varna, Bulgaria
The facility extends across 6 acres, housing more than 300 animals representing 60 different species within specialized enclosures and natural habitats.
Construction of Varna Zoo began in 1958 under architect Bistra Markova's direction, with the official opening ceremony taking place on April 30, 1961.
