Dushanbe Zoo, Public zoo in central Dushanbe, Tajikistan
Located on the banks of the Luchob River next to Pamir Stadium, Dushanbe Zoo spans twice the size of the adjacent sports complex.
Established in 1960, the zoo reached its peak in 1974 with 1,059 animals from 254 species during the Soviet Union period.
The zoo represents the only institution in Tajikistan dedicated to maintaining wildlife in captivity and educating visitors about animal conservation.
The facility opens daily from 9 AM to 5 PM, offering visitors the opportunity to observe 600 animals, including lions, snow leopards, and golden eagles.
The temperate climate of Dushanbe allows the zoo to maintain tropical animals outdoors throughout most of the year.
