Like it. The animals are well-groomed, not sick, beautiful. It was interesting, informative and fun for the children. There are attractions, a shooting range, a laughter room and a playground for children on site. There is a cafe where you can buy snacks, drink coffee/ tea. At the entrance you can buy treats for animals, in the terrarium you can buy souvenirs ( toys) for children: spiders, snakes, etc
. A huge, beautiful exotarium.
Beautiful, cute and ozone monkeys.
Loud parrots, big fish and crocodiles will definitely appeal to children!
P.s - only it didn't work out to stay near the fox enclosure for a long time - the smell is "impressive" :) but I don't think it's the zoo's business.
The impression is amazing! I write as an adult with a three-year-old child. Everyone was happy. Both mom and dad and son. Firstly, a large area. Surrounded by greenery and ponds. Well-groomed. There is no crowding and dust. There are urns and benches everywhere, I will note flowers separately. Beauty. Flower beds are not forgettable. That is, it is certainly pleasant to be on the territory.
You need to take a lot of time to visit, because there is also a dolphinarium and a park with dinosaurs.
We were delighted with both dolphins and dinosaurs. I especially liked dino, of course. It feels like they live literally, each in their own zone. It's a great idea to place them right in the greenery. You walk and come across a huge screaming and moving monster. We all liked them very much. There were few people. This is after the dolphin show, that is, after 7 p.m. They are very cute. The park itself and the reservoirs are all advantages!!!!! Animals should feel comfortable that there is water nearby.
Plus, there are toilets everywhere, free of charge, and there are no queues. Clean and decent. Well, it's very beautiful.
The zoo itself is also above all praise!!!!
I definitely recommend you to visit. The pavilions are unusual. You can climb up and look at the animals from above, feed them.
There are souvenirs in the pavilion with exotic animals.
We can have a snack. The cafe also has something to feed the baby. And there is even a room for a mother and child in the toilet.
It is better to come a couple of hours before the dolphin show, even after 3 o'clock. That is, by 15. To take your time to inspect the animals, then the dolphinarium and dino in the evening. And not every kid is capable of such an excess of impressions.
In general, everything is great.
Thanks to the zoo staff and of course the animals. We are very satisfied. We spent a day of happiness.
A spacious zoo With huge ponds, large open areas of ungulates and a magnificent dolphinarium. The diverse forms of the animal world of the planet are presented. From rare overseas species to our native bears, hares and foxes! The bison, the horses, are just beautiful! And the most striking impression is the stunning performance of marine mammals - sea lion and bottlenose dolphins. We were absolutely delighted, like children. Minsk Zoo is one of the best we have visited. But this zoo is very young! Good luck to the zoo staff and advice to the guests of Minsk to visit it!
About the wonderful zoo in Minsk. We are absolutely delighted!!!!
Lots of animals, all well-groomed, well-fed, very sociable.
The brown bear gave us a whole show, he's still an artist!!!
Zebras, alpacas, goats and the sea of ungulates are happy to communicate with visitors.
Surprisingly, a stork built a nest on top of a cage with birds. I picked up a great place.😉
And we also happened to be at the birth (lambing) of a goat. The children are a little shocked, they were very worried about the wet babies, but they saw with what love the goat takes care of its offspring.
There are several lions in the zoo. Ooh, what a roar there was from one, a very talkative little friend.
The exotarium is beyond praise. A very cozy place, from which I did not want to leave at all.
There are a lot of emotions, everyone is very cool!
If you are in Minsk, be sure to visit!!!
In general, the impression is excellent with small comments on the cleanliness of the enclosures and the condition of some animals (poultry house, small predators).
There are a lot of animals, there is something to see. Super bear, tiger, parrots, fish, snakes. Most of the animals are good. Also a very well-groomed and very sociable local cat.
Children like everything, especially feeding children with paid food for 2 rubles. Carrots and potatoes in a glass. But these 2 rubles were worth it. If you bring the washed carrots yourself, it should be a ride.
There is a toilet.
We didn't have the show with us. We didn't go to the dolphinarium.
At the entrance, they sell glasses with carrots and potatoes for 2 rubles. The children are happy.
The ticket costs 15 bel.rubles even for children.
There doesn't seem to be a cafe there, or we didn't find one.
In general, it is a great entertainment with children for 2-3 hours.
A wonderful zoo! We are tourists from Moscow and our city zoo simply cannot be compared with Minsk.
The zoo is clean, does not smell of animals, respectively - they are often well cleaned.
In the small territory of the zoo there are almost all possible animals that can be in the zoo, except that there were no elephants and giraffes.
The animals are well-groomed, not thin, but I would like all animals to have water in the enclosures in the heat of + 33, this is not even discussed.
It is more profitable to take a shared ticket with the dolphinarium, for ~ 1000 Russian rubles we visited in 4 hours - everything that is in the zoo.
Another small wish is to place an air conditioner in the dolphinarium, the dome gets very hot and the open windows can't cope.
This is a very wonderful place! I was surprised, but the Minsk Zoo surpassed the Moscow one) I was there twice with a short interval, I will tell you about each visit. I should immediately note that the first hike was on May 26 after lunch at about 14:00 (Sunday), the second on June 21 at 11:00 (Friday). I can say that we managed to see more animals for the second time. Among them: foxes (white and red), a wolf, raccoons, a monkey with a cub, beautiful pink birds similar to flamingos, a lemur!! The first time these animals could not be found, they most likely hid in houses. I can relate this to two reasons: 1) it got hotter closer to lunch, it was more comfortable for the animals to hide in the shade, 2) the animals were already fed by visitors)) I was also pleased that on my second visit, the zebra walked right next to the fence and allowed itself to be seen and fed by hand. But, for example, I did not see a tiger on the second day, unlike on the first day))) summarizing all this, I can say that the behavior of animals and their desire to communicate with visitors is difficult to predict (although the bears willingly entertained us both that and the second time). Nevertheless, I recommend that you focus on visiting in the morning and probably on a weekday. All the animals are neat and well-groomed, especially the bears and bison! The bison stood at the fence on both the first and second days, they could be fed directly from the hand, it's incredible 😱😱 I was lucky enough to see baby zubrik, who did not leave his mother at all on the first day, and a month later on my second visit he already walked on his own and even came close to the fence) the dolphinarium is also ready to visit I can recommend it, the performance itself is short-lived, but interesting) by the way, at the entrance to the zoo they sell animal food in cups (2p), and there is a mini cafe for visitors throughout the territory. I recommend taking at least 3 hours to visit for sure!! I am glad that I visited here, a great vacation, thank you!
Clean, spacious, not tiring. Cages with predators are well made-they can be seen from any point. The white tiger is simply magnificent! The pavilion with exotics is originally decorated. Without leaving the zoo, you can visit the dolphinarium, and going a little further, you will find yourself in the dinosaur park (growling, moving). Great idea! It's original! It's worth a visit! And the meeting with dinosaurs will be remembered by both children and adults!
I really liked the zoo, it's big, there are a lot of animals. The cages are clean, everyone is fed, well-fed, the animals look healthy and cheerful. Bison, a lion with a lioness, a tiger, and bears struck with their beauty. Funny horses begged for sweets. You can't list them all! And an interesting Dino Park, the four of us adults were happy to look at the impressive exhibits! I recommend you to visit.
I really liked the zoo with the children. Food for ungulates and birds was bought at the entrance, the children enthusiastically fed the animals. The pavilions with fish and reptiles are not very large, but the Orinoco pavilion makes an impression. But the most exciting thing is the Dinopark. The teenage son said that only for the idea you need to put a five. Although the sensors on dinosaurs need to be improved: they are not sensitive everywhere and generally work.
We are from Gomel, we have been to the Grodno zoo a couple of times and have now reached Minsk.
The zoo is large, there is a shaking aquarium (part in the photo), there are many animals, well-groomed and so on.
Why I took off 2 stars.
- not adults, not a child does not want to return (we compare it with Grodno, and Minsk should be a cut above in quality, but no).
- we were in the heat (kvass, beer, there is food and dolphins), there are few trees, the territory is very large and open (sample in the photo).
- there is not enough information about animals, do not enter the signs - it will bite off (there was a technique, apparently partially repaired), but this is not in that part.
- animals are not arranged for easy viewing (predators, horned, etc.)
- some animals have gorgeous conditions (parrots, fish, bears with pools and .., and some are right in the same building in such small cages ...
And when the sun is in the afternoon, where there is glass, animals are not visible at all (monkeys and ..)
The zoo is good, I'm afraid, but my hand does not rise to put more, little things but ...
There is something to compare it with, but the Minsk Zoo has conquered me and my family. Everything is thoughtful, exciting, amazing, and the dolphinarium is, of course and undoubtedly, the TOP!!! Great time, convenient and large parking. I definitely recommend it. If only there were an interactive zoo like in the forest tayamnitsa in Baranovichi where you can feed, pet deer, ostriches and the rest of our smaller brothers, it would be generally SUPER. But even so, my personal rating is 10 out of 10.
Impressions are simply overwhelming ! Clean , beautiful , cozy , chic !!! It will be interesting for both children and adults)) There is not enough day to see everything 🤗 Dinosaurs are generally alive , this is a separate location)) It is worth visiting the dolphinarium there , we watched the concert in one breath . All the staff are very polite. Thank you for a good rest, it's worth going there without hesitation!!!
A great place for children and adults. A huge territory, easy navigation, there is a dolphinarium, a bison farmstead, terrariums. Catering is well established-varied, fast, tasty and not at exorbitant prices. Clean toilets with soap, hot water. The animals themselves are cheerful, well-fed, friendly. I recommend it!!! Across the road, you can have lunch at the Tradition Cafe.
A pretty good zoo, their locations are clean, the animals are well-groomed. There are many animals, birds, snakes, fish. I really liked the building, in which everything was made in the time of the Maya. But it was a pity for snakes and turtles in small aquariums. Also, people who are not particularly interested in their work work on the attractions. On elastic jumpers, the guy was strapping my child with one hand, and with the other he was looking at the phone..
A favorite place to relax with children in Minsk. A large area of the zoo, a variety of animals. Big predators are lion, tigers, bears. There are a lot of herbivores and birds. You can buy special food for them, everyone is willing to eat with their hands. There are separate halls with fish, a terrarium, a large indoor zoo with plants. And the highlight is the dolphinarium. Everything is just great, I recommend it
The zoo is very pleasant! It's small, unlike in Moscow, but that's a plus. We were with children 7 and 1.7 years old. The elder liked it very much. The younger one liked it too, but of course not everything. It is interesting and not tedious, all the main animals are there, there are picturesque places for beautiful photos. I liked the show at the dolphinarium, but there is one thing. The performance was delayed for 15 minutes (the performance itself is 30) and with young children it is critical. This spoiled the impression, the younger one got tired of waiting and already refused to watch the performance.
I am pleased with the condition of all animals. Zoos are loved by children who love animals, but not by adults who also love animals - the simple truth is, but here it does not feel so vividly. To each aviary, to each piece of land, there is a huge attention of the staff (I saw a young man feeding and cleaning the porcupines aviary; and young women weeding flower beds; and many other zoo workers) - all with smiles, diligent, neat. It is very expensive, but when work is fun, it turns out exactly the result that is visible in the Minsk Zoo. It was very nice to visit you! And, of course, it was great to see an updated aviary of bison, a bird's yard on the water, and many other innovations - after all, I was with you for the first time back in 2014. Thank you for the cleanliness, for the renovation, for the work! I recommend you to visit.
The zoo is small. At the entrance, they offer to buy animal food - they can treat ungulates and birds.
The enclosures are not very large. Many animals were in cabins because of the heat.
There is a dolphinarium, you need to pay for it separately. Sessions at 12, 15 and 18h.
Overall, the visit left a pleasant impression.
I slightly lowered my rating because of the enclosures - I would like the animals to live more comfortably.
Everything is known by comparison.
So, of course, a good, clean zoo, there is a place to walk, the animals are kept clean and it is clear that they are properly cared for.
Very interesting predators: black panther, lions, cougar, etc.
The territory is not very large, it's a long way to go from Independence Avenue, but you can take a taxi 10 rubles.
According to the cost of tickets, it is expensive, but if it goes to the maintenance of such beautiful animals, then it is possible.
I wish the zoo continued prosperity!
A wide variety of animals, birds, both domestic and wild. Some herbivores can be fed, food is sold at the entrance. There is also a map of the zoo at the entrance, where you can see who. A beautifully decorated park, we walked as a family for more than 4 hours and would have walked if the children hadn't been tired. A wonderful place, all the animals are well-groomed, not tortured. There is a cafe where you can have a snack, children's attractions, photo zones. Children have a lot of impressions.
We also visited dino Park. Dinosaurs are full-length, there are many moving dinosaurs with sound. My children are 7 years old and 2 years old, it was interesting. Thank you so much for getting to know wildlife.
Great zoo! We really like to visit with children. The last time we were amused by a new bear, who himself decided to give us a performance with a wheel)) There are many different locations: a separate terrarium, a building with fish, parrots, a variety of animals and birds on the street that can be fed with vegetables sold at the zoo, there are catering points, swings, carousels. In general, you can hang out for the whole day, which is what we usually do!
I liked the zoo. The animals, however, were sleepy in the heat. But they look healthy. There is a contact area, cute little animals. Clean, lots of cafes. I liked the performance of sea animals in the dolphinarium. I didn't go to the Dino Park, at my age it's no longer interesting, but I think the children will like it, such big guys, you can see from afar. In general, I am satisfied.
A wonderful zoo. The most important plus is that it is very clean in the aviaries, the animals themselves do not stink clean and well-fed. There are many animals and they can be fed. You can buy food there. We were with the children and when they got tired of looking at the animals, we went to the playground, which is located there. And we also ate at the zoo, there are several cafes there. We liked it
A great place for both children and adults.Everything is beautifully decorated.We looked at all the animals, no one hid in their houses.I was especially impressed by the Dolphinarium, very cool.There is a cafe, you can eat.Inflatable slides, kids can jump.We spent the whole day and had a lot of fun, good mood, positive emotions and unforgettable impressions! A place where you really relax!
A good zoo, lots of animals, quite beautiful, interesting areas
BUT THERE ARE BIG DISADVANTAGES:
1) there are no some animals, although it is written that there are
2) the biggest disadvantage
The BISON STINKS VERY MUCH, it is clear that they have not been cleaned for a long time (although they came to the discovery)
3) the bear has no water like many animals (it was hot then)
4) there are animals that you can't look at without sadness
I HOPE THAT EVERYTHING WILL BE FIXED
One of the best places for a family pastime. The kids are just thrilled. Further in the text for those who will pay for all this pleasure :)
1. THE ENTRANCE.
There is a beautiful huge parking lot and not far from it there is a second entrance to the zoo + immediately at this entrance and the dinopark itself. There is practically no queue here, unlike the central ticket office. However, there is A CAVEAT. If you also buy tickets to the dolphinarium, it will be more profitable to go to the main entrance, where they will cost less (slightly, only a couple of rubles per ticket) (xs how it works). You can pay with MIR and Belarusbank cards throughout the zoo (cafes, attractions, ticket purchases, etc.).
2. FEED.
If you are going to buy a lump for animals, then consider one point, it is sold here with a margin of about X10. So here's a tip for you. Go to the store in front of the zoo and buy food yourself (carrots, apples, cabbage, turnips, dried without additives), I bought apples and a couple of markovins. Out of harm's way, I put all this away in a children's rucksack.
3. DOLPHINARIUM.
It's a very cool place. I definitely recommend a visit! Not only children will enjoy the performance, even our grandmother was delighted. However, take into account the time of the performances themselves (at the time of our visit, the performances were at 12.00, 15.00, 18.00). The entrance is opened about 15 minutes before the start. The performance itself goes on for 40 minutes. Also in the dolphinarium, you can take pictures with dolphins and even swim with them, although you will have to pay extra for this (before the performance, the trainers themselves held a lottery for 25 rubles for the opportunity to win all this and if you want to test your luck, take cash with you, you will not pay with a lottery card) + if you swim, you need a swimsuit or swimming trunks. Photographing takes place after the presentation, you will have to wait 15-20 minutes for the photo (A4 format on photo paper) or take a picture with your camera or phone (accordingly, you do not need to wait).
4. FOOD.
There are a couple of cafes on site. There were hot dogs, pancakes, French fries, water, juices, sodas, ice cream and many other things, but I kind of named the main thing from the food.
HAVE A GOOD REST :)
We often come here. And to the zoo, and to the exotarium, and to the dolphinarium, and to the dinosaur. Everything is cool. Beautifully decorated. The animals are well-groomed, the territory is landscaped. In addition to exotic animals, there are local pet cats that you can pet!Super! I recommend it to anyone who loves animals!!!!
It's nice to spend time in the Minsk Zoo, there are attractions, a dolphinarium and a dinosaur park, so when visiting Minsk, I recommend visiting, do not expect that there will be a lot of animals, but you will definitely be interested, and I'm almost sure that you will return here, since one day on the attractions, the second on the zoo itself along with the dinosaur park and the Dolphinarium.
A great place to spend time with both children and adults. There are a huge number of animals that can be fed with vegetables bought there. Animals are represented from the smallest reptiles and frogs to the king of beasts himself.
The animals look great, inspected, clean, well-fed.
Very beautiful territories, there is a place to walk, take photos, have a snack.
I recommend that you definitely set aside a whole day and spend time there.
Great zoo! At the entrance you can buy carrots and beets, buy a lot of people who want to eat - in the assortment.
If you go up from the entrance (along the left path), then at first you feel that you will not see anything special (we were in April, when many animals are in winter apartments), but this is not the case. There are excellent aviaries with lamps, birds, and predatory animals hidden in the depths, and the covered pavilion of South America is a must-visit. My favorite is zebras, which can be fed if you go to the right side of their enclosure.
There were not many people, the animals look well-groomed, even the street cats on the territory are plump and walk impressively along the paths.
My children and I are just delighted with the visit. A huge variety of animals, a terrarium, an aquarium, but most of all the exotarium is admired. We also visited the dolphinarium and the dinopark located on the territory of the zoo, this is a separate range of emotions. The only thing we didn't have enough time, 5 hours is not enough) Next time we will schedule a visit in the morning.
We came from Russia according to the plan to visit the zoo with a child! Animals in spacious modern enclosures. The lion and the lioness conquered everyone!
The dolphinarium and a very interesting program made a special impression! We have been to various dolphinariums in Europe, the most interesting program in Minsk, the merit is mostly due to the coach, of course, well done, just super!
It's a wonderful place. Clean, well maintained. The territory is small, but everything is very thought out, it is clear that it was done with love. We were a family at the dolphinarium, we were delighted with the performance. But Nyura the chimpanzee struck us in the heart. We're her fans now.
A very cool place, a lot of contact with animals, you can feed, you can swim, feed the birds, pet them, everything is very well arranged. All the animals look very healthy and alive.The lioness is being treated for allergies. Everything is fine, she is fat and happy.
It's the best thing to visit with children, and it's interesting for adults. The pets are well-groomed, clean and tidy everywhere. The territory is not very large, but there are several cafes for taste and color. The price tag is adequate, there are discounted tickets. And there is also a dolphinarium on the territory, but that's another story! I recommend you to visit!!!
I really liked the zoo. The animals are well-groomed and well-fed. There are a lot of animals, a beautiful territory. There are entertainments and attractions, a dolphinarium. You can buy a combined ticket to Dino Park. There is a cafe on site and a fast food outlet. A clean toilet.
Surprisingly, the zoo has a very small territory, and a small number of animals. We expected to take a longer walk here, but ... the location is also strange, far from the main tourist avenues. But these are my quibbles. To be fair, it is very clean here, and there are no smells, like in the St. Petersburg Zoo. A separate respect that there is a dolphinarium on the territory! I really liked the trainers, most likely a husband and wife. We did a great show with dolphins and a sea lion, the children and parents were delighted!
Complete delight. Not a big but very cozy zoo. The animals are all well-groomed. Everything is clean. We had a lot of fun. A vegetable set for feeding animals is offered at the entrance, you will not regret buying it. It's just a lot of impressions from direct communication with animals.
Very clean, compact and interesting! A must-visit! There is also a dolphinarium and a Dino Park on the territory - a complete set for children! On the downside, there are a lot of people on weekends. I recommend visiting on weekdays!
The zoo is not very big, but there is someone to look at: many birds, bison, lions, tigers, cougars, wild boars, llamas, zebras, horses, donkeys, goats, wolves, foxes, exotarium, terarium. You can get around it in 2-3 hours. Clean and well-maintained territory, the valleries are located very close to each other. Several small cafes, tents with souvenirs and toys. There is also a dinopark and a dolphinarium on the territory, which are paid separately. It is located far from the center and you still have to take a bus from the metro.
I really liked the Minsk Zoo. Beautiful well-maintained and territory. The animal areas are made with love for the wards. I was amazed by the terrarium. It was the first time I was in such a place: it was made of several levels and zones, with interesting transitions. Macaws move quietly inside this space, fish swim in an outdoor pool, a huge python Kaa lies behind the glass, and a turtle rides on the cayman.
A good zoo, lots of animals. But it seems to me that they are not well cared for. How could a bear put a huge plastic bottle in a cage, with which he sleeps and then chews. And if he swallows the pieces?! Think about it, he's alive too) The cages are not all cleaned, there is a lot of dirt, and they are also small. I would combine the empty cells and make them bigger. One animal (I don't remember which one) was generally away from everyone, that's where the building with parrots and monkeys inside is, there is only one aviary under it. The animal lies in the shade, with the weather at +22 degrees, there is a constant shadow from the building and it is very cold. There was not a single lamp in the animal's enclosure, I wanted to cry looking at it. Think of an animal! You can see that they feed well, all the animals are well-fed, they definitely do not starve)) Otherwise, everything is not bad
Since there is only a zoo in Mogilev, in principle, a well-known place, then in Minsk the zoo exceeded all expectations, a wide variety of animals, birds and entertainment rooms.We were there last year.but I noticed one drawback, passing by the donkey, I saw that he was very thin, such a feeling that he was not fed there, because of this, the positive impression was gone.
In general, a good zoo: a large green area, open and closed enclosures with animals, some can be fed with special food (sold separately at the entrance to the zoo), there are cafeterias, children's attractions. There is a dolphinarium and a dinopark with moving animals on the territory of the zoo. Tickets can be purchased separately, or a subscription.
Among the disadvantages: there are empty enclosures, there is not enough variety of animals for a large capital (compared with the Moscow Zoo), there are no polar bears, penguins, giraffes, elephants, pandas, kangaroos, capybaras, etc.
We were at the zoo with a 7-year-old child.The child was delighted.There are a lot of different animals: buffalo, lion, Bengal tiger,lynx, rabbits, wolf, a separate pavilion of exotic animals.The child really liked the terrarium.There is a cafe on site, an entertainment room for children (attractions, trampoline).You can buy pet food at the entrance.
A very nice place where both children and adults will like it.
You can buy pet food at the entrance. There are also exotic animals, and ordinary rabbits and lambs. It's nice to see everyone. The animals are well-groomed and happy. There is a dolphinarium on the territory of the zoo
A great place to relax, a diverse animal world, many animals can be hand-fed. At the time of our visit, however, some of the enclosures were closed, and the hot weather forced many animals to simply hide in their houses. But still, there are a lot of positive emotions after visiting the zoo for both children and adults.
If you are looking for impressions, delights and surprises, then only to the zoo! A huge territory, a wide variety of animals, plus: you can buy food for them and have something to eat). You need to stock up for such a long walk around the zoo, there are entertainment for children, by the way, the best snacks and water for children to buy in advance, it will be cheaper). I definitely recommend it
I really liked the zoo, you can buy food and treat animals, there is a dolphinarium on the territory of the zoo, be sure to go to the show of these wonderful dolphins and sea lion, there is also a cafe where you can have a snack
