Land of the Lions

The most breathtaking experience to feature at ZSL London Zoo, the Land of the Lions presents an astonishing ‘windowless view’ into the big cats’ enclosure. Enter the amphitheater-style Lion’s temple and peer into the enclosure to see the Big Cats mere metres away, separated only by very fine wires – a seriously exhilarating experience.

Tiger Territory

Gorilla Kingdom

Get a close view of the zoo’s western lowland gorillas in an environment that mimics their African rainforest! The interactive exhibits will teach you about the gorillas as you admire them!

Penguin Beach

Visit the penguins and watch them waddle around their enclosure before diving into the clear water! Catch a glimpse of the penguins shooting through the water from the underwater viewing bubble – you’ll soon find out exactly why this attraction is called ‘Penguin Beach’!

Reptile House

If you're a fan of Harry Potter - visiting the Reptile House is a must! You'll remember the famous scene from Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone involving Harry and a talking Burmese python - it was filmed at the Reptile House! You'll also find komodo dragons, tortoises and extremely venomous snakes here.

Rainforest Life

Come face to face with a number of rainforest residents, including monkeys, sloth and armadillo in this indoor exhibit! Step into the night life area – the light will dim and you’ll discover bats, rats and other nocturnal wonders.

Children’s Zoo
