We went to the Leipzig Zoo on out third day in Leipzig, which was on a Sunday. It is located around 3 kilometers away from our apartment, and 6 of us went there together (Lingam, Daniel, Fang Fang, Chong, Wai Tat & me).
It cost us 13 Euros to enter the zoo. As earlier briefed by our cultural trainer in Cyberjaya, Sundays are normally family day for the Germans. Indeed there were many people with their families around. Lots of them!
Check out these photos from the zoo:

Check out these photos from the zoo:
Me at the entrance of the Zoo. Leipzig zoo is celebrating it's 130 years' anniversary this year.
Upon entering, I saw these ducks which Stephanie love! =)
Almost all signboards and descriptions are in German. >:(
There were penguins there too! Cute little chaps..
An even more stunning-looking duck. Which reminds me that I want to eat duck noodle as soon as I return back to Melaka.
Buddha stays in the zoo in Germany!!! Sometimes in Asian restaurants too!! Pffffftttt!!! >:(It was the entrance towards the 'Asian' side of the zoo, where you see orang-utan, tigers, etc..
Group of posers!
The origin of man, along the wall... That young mother had to be in the frame. She stood there for quite a while, and I had no other better angle at that point..
Check out the surroundings! It was simply amazing..
A proud little meerkat strutting his stuff for eager visitors to take a snap of him.
Me in the colours of autumn...
Me outside of the zoo. As a conclusion, Leipzig Zoo is a big and nice place to spend your weekend, but definitely not worth a visit by any Malaysians. You should really give it a consideration as a last resort should you be in Leipzig. We have more or less similar animals on display back at home, and for 13 Euros, I guess you can bring the whole family of 5 to Zoo Melaka at any time.Will post again soon. Take care!!
great view of the zoo. simply stunning. my favs will be the one with the giraffes, meerkat and ok la...the "korjes" autumn leaves :D
ReplyDeletebtw, any idea why is there a statue of buddha at the zoo?
Symbolizing the Asian theme of the zoo... :P
