Most of the enclosures were very small. Furthermore, there was only 1 real bathroom, the rest were trucks with a capacity of 2 people. 800 rubles was far too much to pay for such a small zoo

Interesting place a zoo in city! But i guess visit here in summer is not good idea. Animals and you too might be tired with the heat. The ticket price is 800 ruble for one person. But i think its kinda expensive then i could enjoy this place. If you are traveler and have lots of days then you can visit here just for relax. That's all

Nice experience, we were travelling to Moscow and my little one really enjoyed meeting the animals. The zoo has 2 sections and lots of animal species, you will need to walk a lot to cover the whole park
