Popular exhibits
Secret Life of Reptiles and Amphibians
See some of the world's rarest reptiles and amphibians, from the snake-eating king cobra to mountain chicken frogs, that the zoo is saving from the brink of extinction. With eight different habitats to discover, this promises to be an educational tour of the globe.
Tiny Giants!
A celebration of all things small but mighty, and the sometimes strange but always wonderful world of invertebrates. Includes a colourful coral reef tank.
Giants of the Galápagos
Home to the zoo's three Galápagos giant tortoises. Step inside to enjoy the balmy climate of the Galápagos Archipelago and discover these magnificent reptiles who can live for over a century. Imagine how the world might change in their lifetime and discover how we can protect them – and our planet – for the years to come.
Facts
There are several listed buildings in the London Zoo and in the surrounding areas in Regents Park - one of the most peculiar is the traditional grade I listed telephone box at Penguin Beach, can you find it?
The Casson elephant house’s roof was designed by Sir Hugh Casson. His design portrays a herd of elephants drinking from a watering hole.
The much-loved Winnie-the-Pooh was inspired by a real-life black bear that lived at London Zoo from 1914 until her death in 1934. She was tame much, loved being handled, and was loved by all. You can find a statue of her in the zoo.

Lexie ·Un zoo très décevant. Beaucoup d’enclos vide et pour ceux qui ont des animaux y en a tres peu. Un zoo avec une atmosphère bizarre, « vide »
Number 1 attraction!
Wendy ·An absolute must! Love, love, love the zoo and must get another annual pass.
Not a great visit
Not too many animals, aviary was very small, no Panda or Koala. Only good attraction were Gorillas and Penguins.
Abandoned
Roy Arne ·We’ve been to many different ones, this zoo felt like an abandoned place.
DELUDENTE
GIUSEPPE ·A parte la famiglia dei gorilla non c'è assolutamente niente. Animali non si vedono, indicazioni scadenti.
average
Singh ·besides the Gorillas, everything else are either common or empty.
