The Rare and Spectacular of Valencia Zoo!
I entered the renowned Valencia Zoo in Spain full of anticipation, and I was deeply impressed!
Can you imagine? This zoo covers an area of only 100,000 square meters, yet it meticulously displays over 150 species of rare animals from Africa, many of which are endangered subspecies and species that are seldom seen in our country.
This new type of zoo, established in 2008, often makes visitors feel as if they have instantly traveled to Africa with its exquisite design. The park focuses on creating immersive and realistic landscapes, bringing in three tall baobab trees, three types of acacia trees, and four kinds of palm trees from Madeira, among others.
The high-level mixed-species exhibits are particularly eye-catching, with rhinos, zebras, and ostriches playfully playing hide and seek, while Western gazelles, baboons, and pygmy hippos coexist harmoniously in the water, on the shore, and in the trees.
The park is divided into four major areas: the savannah, the equatorial forest, the caves, and Madagascar, each bursting with excitement. The exhibits are compact and well-organized, with a new view every ten steps or so, allowing for a feast for the eyes without the need to walk too far.
