Tierpark Nymphaea, Zoo in Esslingen am Neckar, Germany.
Tierpark Nymphaea is a zoo in Esslingen am Neckar with separate sections for different animal species. These areas connect through maintained pathways that run across the entire property.
The zoo was founded in 1932 as a wildlife conservation center in the Baden-Württemberg region. It has developed over the decades while continuing its role in nature protection efforts.
The park takes its name from water lilies, and these plants shape the grounds through ponds and water features that create the animals' habitat. Visitors experience a blend of water and greenery throughout their walk.
