 Prague Zoo ... protect wildlife, and educate the public" in the district of Troja in the north of Prague. The zoo occupies 45 hectares (111 acres) and houses about 4,600 animals that represent 630 species from all around the world. Prague Zoological Garden has contributed significantly to saving the Przewalski horse. For many years it was the biggest breeder of the species in the world.Newest Review: ... although sadly I can not remember what they were called. One of the larger enclosures housed the Przelwalski horse and ... more ... Prague Zoo plays a large role in the conservation of these beautiful animals. Over 200 of them have been bred here with some of them being released back to their native environment in the Gobi desert.
Next is the Wolf section which again was very large. There were probably about 30 wolves and they all seemed very happy. The enclosure had large rocks and logs for them to climb on. Following on from here, you will find yourself walking down a winding path where you can see hyena's (again with a large enclosure) and yo...more |

Myself and my fiancée have just returned from a week break in Prague. As always, when we go on holiday, we try and visit as many places as possible while we are there.

Prague Zoo is situated a few miles outside the city centre itself and can be reached via the tube line C to Holesovice and then by bus 112.

++ Introduction ++ Prague Zoo was first opened to the public in 1931; probably before the flood of 2002 few people knew of its existence. Many of you will remember the shocking floods in central Prague in the summer of 2002. The news pictures showed the famous Charles Bridge almost totally submerged. Much of the focus of attention was however centred on Prague Zoo which is situated to the north west of Prague just metres away from the banks of the River Vlatava. Prague Zoo was well and truly put on the world map overnight because of the flood. TV images of the rescue attempts of hundreds of animals and birds were watched avidly around the globe. ...
