A trip to Khao Kheow Zoo in Pattaya is an amazing way to view and encounter a wide array of animals in an open-air arena that mimics their natural surroundings. It feels more like a nature park than a zoo, providing a refreshing outdoor escape. Explore this fascinating zoo on foot and by tram ride, which takes you around beautifully landscaped grounds divided into distinct zones based on the characteristics of the species, playfully living their lives. The proximity to Pattaya city makes it an ideal half-day or full-day excursion for both adults and children.
WHAT TO EXPECT
Discover a Diverse Range of Animals
Set out on a jungle journey in Pattaya. Spend your day wandering around thematic parks inside the zoo. Watch giant elephants swim, flamboyant flamingoes tiptoeing around a lake, lions lounging, tigers pacing, penguins waddling, and even rare animals like the pygmy hippopotamus being playful.
Take a Tram Ride to Explore the Zoo
Ride the convenient zoo tram that traverses comprehensively through the expansive grounds. It offers respite from the warm tropical heat as well. This zoo is amongst the largest in Asia, so covering the zones on foot is an exhaustive task. A tram ride ensures you view the sights with convenience and offers the flexibility of alighting at an animal exhibit and then hopping on a tram once you are finished exploring it.
Have Fun at the Interactive Animal Shows
Animal shows at Khao Kheow Zoo are one of the biggest highlights of this attraction, as they fuse entertainment, education, and close-up wildlife encounters and keep adults and kids delighted. Catch a lively session demonstrating animal skills, along with friendly and caring instructors who also serve as guides to give you ample knowledge about the behaviors of animals participating in these shows.
