Bucharest Zoo, Municipal zoo in Băneasa district, Romania
The facility extends across 5.85 hectares, housing 800 animals of 100 species, including tigers, lynxes, wolves, bears, lemurs, and tropical birds.
The zoological garden started in 1955 as part of the Municipal Household Section, and formally opened to visitors on May 1, 1959.
The zoo functions as an educational center where visitors learn about wildlife conservation while observing both Romanian and international animal species.
The entrance fees are set at 13 RON for adults and 6.5 RON for children, with the facility operating daily from 9:00 AM to 7:00 PM.
Before the zoo's establishment, small groups of animals were distributed across various Bucharest parks, including Cișmigiu, Carol I, and Herăstrău.
