An amazing zoo! We walked as a family for more than three hours. We went to the dino park, but the children did not like it as much as in the Zoo. Now there are very happy memories of the trip. It is a pity that the Dolphinarium did not work on Monday, it was not possible to get there.
Addition separately for citizens of the Russian Federation: if there is a disability, then it is valid here (free passage for a disabled person and an accompanying person). I recommend you to visit!!!

The Minsk Zoo is a place where animals are truly loved and cared for like children. Many thanks to the director for sheltering Sherkhan, and a low bow to all the employees for their care. Greetings from polar Vorkuta.

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.

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.

The zoo is big. There are a lot of animals, but in summer there are a lot of people, it's noisy and the animals look tortured. On a winter morning, everything was completely different. Quietly. The animals are active, playing, trying to communicate with visitors.

Cool! It was a few years ago, and everything has changed for the better. A pleasant moment for me was that at every step you could pay with a card: horseback riding, buying goodies, and attractions.

Good afternoon, we visited both in summer and winter - it's always clean, the animals are well groomed, clean, it's clear that they are well cared for. Not only the child, but we are very pleased with the visit.

It's a beautiful zoo. Lots of cool animals. You can buy a cup of carrots at the entrance, if you decide to have a snack instead of feeding the animals, it's a great option.

It's not a big zoo, but it's well maintained. It is better to take carrots with you, it will be cheaper than buying at the zoo. There are relatively many animals. A very cute baby bison.

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.

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!

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 :)

It's a very nice zoo. At first, they thought it was small, but with each location they realized that it was an extremely extensive park. I liked the exhibition of venomous snakes. It is also worth noting the adequate price in the cafe for food and drinks. We visited the dolphinarium: a very exciting performance!

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.

I'll start with a minus, but for some reason, there are no children's tickets in an obviously childish form of entertainment, such as the zoo. And even for a 5-year-old, you have to pay the full cost.
But at the same time, the zoo itself is great. Unlike in Moscow, where in 50% of cases you simply won't see animals in an aviary, they can be seen everywhere here. Even if they're sleeping somewhere. This is not least because the enclosures here are very small.
We visited the zoo with pleasure, I recommend it!

Last year we found out that there are guided tours. It was a great idea to organize a child's birthday. The children were delighted. In 1.5 hours, everyone "fell in love", were impressed and went to the pizzeria with great pleasure.

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 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.

I've never seen a camel and a lion in such a terrible state. The mane looks just like one big kaltun. Some animals look bad, not well groomed. Animals are not washed or scratched. Hamsters are kept simply in a plastic container. It hurts to watch. The zoo smells terrible. I always visit zoos when traveling and haven't been so disappointed in a long time....

There are many animals, a terrarium, an aquarium, the animals are well-groomed, you can buy food for them at the entrance. A waffle cup with breadsticks and bird food on the bottom. The feed costs 2 rubles. It's interesting, especially with children. The cost of an adult ticket is 17 rubles.

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!

We visited the zoo with pleasure. Everything is interesting and the zoo itself, and insects, and reptiles.The only drawback is that not all animals are in great shape. The cougar is like a bun. The tiger's paw is swollen. It's clear that the animals may not be young and get sick like humans. I would hang signs on the cages, for example, Kisunya is sick, but we try to treat,,

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.

A very well maintained and beautiful zoo! You can buy food and feed the animals, of which there are many. The only negative is the rats that run between the enclosures (near bears and eagles).

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!!!

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.

Thank you so much for visiting!
We were very surprised that the dolphinarium and the zoo are in the same place, which is very convenient if you want to visit both places.
The aviaries are clean, the zoo is very well maintained, the staff is calm and tells you everything. If it's cold, you can go to a cafe and have a snack. There are a lot of ungulates that can be fed with food bought at the zoo (only 2 Belarusian rubles per cup). Lots of positive emotions!

Fire, Adults, but the feeling was like that of children. All the animals are clean, active, sociable, the COUGAR purred (kitty), the leopard walked (posed) . The staff is polite and smiling. Dolphinarium is generally a storm of emotions. I definitely recommend it, even if you are without children.

A great place for a family vacation. You need to go there for at least half a day, not in time for an hour or two. A large territory, a lot of beautiful, well-groomed animals, both our Belarusian and exotic. It is possible to treat animals with vegetables purchased there. There is a playground for children with attractions, there is a place to eat, there are toilets. However, it is very uncomfortable in the exotarium, you need to be a gymnast. In warm enclosures, the viewing windows are not thought out a little, they glare and sometimes you need to look closely to see the inhabitant.

In general, the zoo is not bad, there are many expositions and there is something to see. The territory is large, it was not possible to inspect everything on the same day with the child. We paid for the entrance to the Dinopark, but we never got there at all. I would like to expand the room of the terrarium. It is very stuffy, the passage is narrow, pandemonium is created and it is impossible to see everyone.
Of course, I would like to send the animal enclosure for reconstruction, somewhere it does not look very attractive.
The windows are dirty and dusty. In general, the staff was friendly in every room, at the entrance. It is a pity that it was not possible to reach the Dinosaurs and the entrance ticket was gone. But the impressions remained positive, despite some points.

A great place to relax and have a good time with and without children. There are toilets. The dolphin show is great! I really liked it. There is a good cafe near the zoo and the prices there are pleasant. Inside the zoo, all these balloons and other things that are usually sold in parks are expensive. There is Parking, but there are places only in the morning, it is already difficult to park the car by lunch. With a ticket for 32 Belarusian rubles, you can go to the zoo, dolphinarium, terrarium and see aquariums. Only the dinopark is unavailable on this ticket. I understood that this is a park with dinosaur figures.

Most of all, I liked the mulled wine, with which you can freely walk around the zoo. There will be no such thing in the Russian Federation, an ordinary zoo, it's better to come at the opening or in the evening, all animals sleep during the day

A good zoo looks after animals , feeds them, looks after them. I remember a lot of it. It was a lion. He yawned so much. He had such huge teeth. He didn't bother to feed the animals. Well, maybe you can, but they don't sell food where you buy a ticket

It was not only the children who were impressed, but also us, the adults. I liked absolutely everything. I did not expect such a large zoo. In general, fish, birds, animals, reptiles, insects - there are all kinds. Everything looks cool. The yellow-billed eagle is not a bird, but a wild boar)) But the fish "kuzovok" is generally something simple.
