Minsk Zoo is a large zoological park housing over 250 animal species. Established as a traditional zoo, it is currently undergoing modernization with new exhibits like the tropical hall. However, a significant portion of the zoo still consists of older, cage-like enclosures. Guests can see a variety of animals, including big cats, bears, and a dolphinarium (separate fee applies). The zoo also features a dinopark and various cafes and shops. While the animal collection is extensive, concerns regarding animal welfare and facility maintenance are frequently expressed.
