Hannover
Zoo – Attractions here are enclosures (not cages) where animals
are in a recreation of natural habitats, such as: Gorilla Mountain (take a path on an expedition into Central Africa, with footprints hint
at the inhabitants to a jungle meadow) Jungle Palace (enter
the "ruins" of a maharaja's palace with waterworks and gargoyles,
"crumbling" walls covered in vines reveal elephants, tigers, and
leopards); Jambesi (visit the African steppes filled with zebras,
antelope, ostriches and walk across the suspension bridge); end up at Meyer's
Farm (recreation of a Saxony farm with bakery, storehouse, sheep, pigs,
and cows). |
