Skopje Zoo, Wildlife facility in City Park, Skopje, North Macedonia.
Skopje Zoo is a wildlife facility located within City Park that houses a variety of animals arranged across different habitat zones. The layout allows visitors to walk through different areas and see creatures from various regions and environments.
The zoo was established in 1926 with a modest collection of donated animals on a small parcel of land. Over decades, the facility expanded and developed into the larger site that exists today.
The zoo serves as a gathering place for families in Skopje, where people of all ages come to spend time outdoors and observe animals in their habitats. It functions as a place where local residents connect with nature as part of their everyday city life.
The zoo is conveniently located within the city park and is accessible by foot or public transportation. There is ample space for walking through the grounds, and visiting on mild weather days offers better opportunities to see active animals.
The zoo is home to several rare animal species, including Siberian tigers and jaguars, that are otherwise difficult to encounter. These special creatures draw many visitors who seek the chance to see uncommon animals up close.
