Easily accessible by the metro, just a few minutes walk away. A big zoo with lots of things to see and quite easy to navigate around. They have a large colourful map (in a few languages, you can ask for the English version) showing you the different attractions. As it is quite a big, I would suggest taking the train... More

This is one of the best zoo I've been to. The ground area is really big so be sure to allocated ample time! Entrance fee is cheap and it's really worth the money.

We loved our visit, admission was around $2. Our kids are under 6 so for 5 people our total admission was $4! The park is huge so it took a lot of walking but there is a shuttle train that takes you around. So much greenery, it was so beautiful. Lots of cute little play places for kids, and lots... More

My family and I visited the zoo on a weekday to avoid the weekend crowd. The zoo is conveniently located right next to the Taipei Zoo mrt station, You can also take the Gondola to another entrance if you fancy. It was raining on the day that we were there but there were many people selling umbrellas, toys and raincoats... More

This is the first zoo I've seen or heard of with a McDonalds and a 7-11 in the park grounds. It cost equivalent to $2 USD to enter this well planned attraction. All the animals are basically housed according to geographical location around the world. There are lots of toilets available and the grounds appear to be wheelchair friendly. A... More
