Attraction

Budapest Zoo & Botanical Garden

Allatkerti krt. 6-12, Budapest

Established in 1866, this zoo is one of the oldest in Europe. You’ll see lions, tigers, hippos, bears, giraffes, red pandas, and other exciting exhibits. Hug a kangaroo, pet a stingray, take a walk with a lemur, and watch the sea lions put on a show. The exhibits are surrounded by beautifully landscaped areas comprising the gardens–if the main draw for you is a botanical garden rather than the zoo, you’ll have more luck at Fuveszkert.
