The variety of woods found here makes it possible to present the ZOO area simultaneously as a botanical area. In our ZOO we have marked more than 30 species of woody plants.
For children, there are two children's playgrounds in our zoo. During the summer season children can enjoy the attractions (inflatable giraffe, trampolines, horseback riding, children's autodrome). In the ZOO area there are refreshment stalls, souvenir shop, ZOO shop and confectioery.
Every year there are organized a variety of cultural events directly in the are of ZOO.
