Guided Story

Can you hear the vibrant chatter of the birds around you? It's almost like they're putting on a concert just for you. Look up and you might catch a glimpse of a colorful macaw shimmering its wings in the sunlight. Did you know the zoo has been part of the city since 1956? Behind you, in the distance, you might see the silhouette of St. Augustinus Church, a striking contrast to the wild nature here. Listen closely, and you might hear a lion's roar echoing, making its presence known. In spring, the zoo is especially enchanting with flowers in full bloom and the sweet scent in the air. Take a moment, sit on a bench, and let the surroundings soak in.
