Founded in 1940, the Yerevan Zoo has long been one of the city's most beloved leisure spots for both locals and visitors. A day here can unfold at a leisurely pace – from calm walks along green alleys to exciting encounters with the zoo's inhabitants.
Today, its collection includes around 3000 animals, birds and reptiles representing more than 300 species from across the globe. For children, it is a living encyclopedia of nature, offering the chance to see with their own eyes what they once read in books or learned at school. The zoo aims not only to entertain but also to educate, raising awareness about rare and endangered species. On weekends, the atmosphere is especially joyful, as the alleys come alive with children's laughter and amazed voices.
Visiting the Yerevan Zoo is more than just a walk–it is a small journey into the wild, where everyone finds something to inspire them.
