Antwerp Zoo Dierentuin
|
|
Located right in the midst of the city, immediately behind Centraal Station, the 10ha/25 acre Antwerp Zoo was founded in 1843. It is widely regarded as one of the finest zoos in Europe on account of its variety of species, its success in breeding, the care bestowed on the animals, kept in the most natural environment possible, and, last but by no means least, its architecture.
