Taman Indonesia, Indonesian wildlife zoo in Kallenkote, Netherlands
Taman Indonesia is a wildlife park in Kallenkote that houses animals from Indonesia such as binturong, Bali starling, civets, Malayan wood owls, and muntjak deer in recreated habitats. The park also features a Balinese temple and has different areas for various species.
The park was founded with the opening of a Balinese temple, marking a special cultural milestone. This temple was the first of its kind in the region and continues to shape the park's character today.
The place celebrates Indonesian traditions through art forms like wayang shadow theater and live performances that visitors can watch directly. These cultural shows tell regional stories and display crafts from different parts of Indonesia.
The park operates on different schedules depending on the season: Saturday through Wednesday in spring and fall, then daily from 10 AM to 5 PM in summer months. Plan for uneven ground and natural pathways when visiting.
The park houses the Bengal leopard cat, a rare small wildcat that many visitors overlook despite being a fascinating miniature predator. This species shows that the park also values smaller, often unnoticed animals.
