Our recent visit to the Minsk Zoo was a real discovery for us. We were amazed by the variety of animal species, many of which we met for the first time. There was food for feeding animals at the entrance to the zoo, and we were happy to buy carrots and dried fruits. Feeding the llamas with carrots was especially fun and amusing. We also enjoyed treating different birds to dries, observing their preferences.
The territory of the zoo was large and well maintained, which made it possible to move comfortably between the enclosures. The enclosures were spacious and clean, which spoke of the zoo staff's concern for the animals. Some of the animal species, such as the African elephant, reindeer and Amur tiger, especially impressed us.
In general, our visit to the Minsk Zoo was filled with positive emotions and a lot of interesting impressions. We will be happy to come back here again! :)

It looks a little sparse in winter, as most of the animals are absent from open enclosures. But the closed ones are very interesting. The standard ticket price includes a terrarium, aquarium and exotic animals.
At the entrance, for 2 rubles, you can buy a cup of food and feed the animals, near which a corresponding sign is installed.

Very well-maintained territory, everything is clean, the animals are in large comfortable cages - there is access to feed!
Even the cups with food for animals are waffle, so that there is no plastic and garbage!

A great place to spend your free time, regardless of age. Children will be delighted (adults will not be left without emotions either). I recommend setting aside at least half a day for a visit. Time flies by unnoticed. I recommend visiting the dolphinarium (a lot of positive emotions and a flurry of impressions and a positive mood are provided).
Take into account the weather forecast (especially if the sun is shining), There is not much place to hide in the shade.

It is very beautiful, cozy, interesting solutions with bridges to look at animals from above. It was great to combine the opportunity to feed animals, but to make a petting zoo

Dolphinarium, zoo... If you visit everything, then plan for the whole day, for very young children, either in your arms or on a bicycle, because you will have to walk, but only in your hands into buildings. We took tickets for everything, arrived half an hour before the performance at the dolphinarium, and then walked for three hours. The children were tortured, but they were happy.

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

The best in Belarus.
Only then could I find out that the hedgehog is an exotic animal. Cool terrariums. By itself, it is quite large and only the zoo can be passed at a fairly normal speed after watching everything for an hour and a half. And if you look at the animals even more and look at them and take another ticket to the dolphinarium, as well as the dinozoopark, then you can leave it there all day

It's a great place. We visited with a small child. The child was delighted with dino park. Since he likes dinosaurs) The main visit was aimed at visits to the dolphinarium. The show program is great. Dolphins are very artistic. The child appreciated it. Roe deer, goats are very friendly.

Sometimes it's okay to go and see, but in general, it's not advisable for the 21st century to maintain and maintain zoos. After all, I feel sorry for the animals. They sell cups to feed animals for a lot of money, you'd better buy carrots at home, wash them, cut them up and feed them quietly) but I didn't tell you that. I've never gone to the Dino Park at all, but I don't think there's anything interesting there.

We had a great walk, went to the dolphinarium, it's not expensive, there is a large free parking next to the zoo. Everything is fine, but because of the heat we couldn't look at the predators, they were sleeping peacefully in the shade.

Very clean, large enclosures, healthy and contented animals (it seems that even slightly overfed). There are many animals, navigation is simple. I was especially pleased that there is also a Dinopark and a Dolphinarium.
The food and attractions on site are expensive and not the best, so they were not used.
Yes, this is the only place in Minsk where a discount was given to a large family.

Very nice staff. An adequate price.
Among the disadvantages: a small area and, accordingly, a small space for animals

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 place to relax with children, at first it seemed expensive to me, but after the inspection I changed my mind. Although for children under 10 years old, half the price could be done. The territory is large, there are a lot of animals, there are places to eat, and there are actually a lot of places, especially in the back of the zoo closer to the main entrance, you should not queue near the dolphinarium. It is better not to go to lunch, especially if it is hot and a lot of animals are resting.
I didn't like that all the buildings have an icon that you can't use baby strollers, especially they let us through to the exotarium, of course, they explained this by the fact that there is not enough space! But in fact, there is enough space there, everything is thought out for the disabled and it is very interesting. Therefore, dear administration, why do you limit people with young children and think for them? They will decide for themselves where they are cramped, such as in a terrarium (the building of which should have been completely given over to the toilet a long time ago, and reptiles should build a new one), and where is normal! Believe me, they themselves will not go with the baby to a place where it is cramped and stuffy!

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.

I remember the zoo 36 years ago- admission is free, of the animals I remember birds, ducks, swans, an otter - my son, a llama, adored her.The zoo in the present is a worthy place for animals to live, visiting it, communicating with animals always bring pleasant emotions for both children and adults.

I really, really liked that you can feed animals (though only ungulates). Cups of food were bought at the entrance to the zoo. The child was delighted. Llamas are just tame and goats. I liked feeding the zebra. Everything is fine, I didn't want to leave)))

This is my favorite zoo I've ever been to. Cozy, clean, well-groomed animals, you can buy animal food at the entrance, everything is safe, although the animals are very close that you can see them. There is also a dinopark on the territory, it pleased me more with the landscape and places where you can take beautiful photos.

Animals, birds, fish, snakes - everything is interesting! But there are also disadvantages that relate to services. Not only is there nothing much to eat in the cafe (ice cream, chips, kvass, beer), they also closed by 17-00, although there are still a lot of visitors in the zoo, you can wash your hands only in one toilet, stalls with souvenirs at 16-17 hours also do not work, so children can to be left without toys, magnets, etc.

A zoo is like a zoo.
But the child is delighted with swimming with dolphins. We had a program called "Relax with dolphins". Very attentive coaches. The child was very nervous, but they so coolly endeared him to themselves! For those who can't swim, there are armbands. The price is not small, but believe me, it's worth it. My son came out and asked when we would come back) thank you

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

A pleasant experience from a walk in the zoo. It's clean, there are shops and cafes. The kids really like it. There are performances at the dolphinarium 3 times a day. Only it's always a pity to see tummies in cages.

In general, the impressions were positive.Clean and tidy.But animals make up 80% of the fauna of our forests, and we would like to diversify them with exotic ones-after all, the state zoo!

The zoo is gorgeous, better than in Grodno (one plus for contact animals). We are glad that if there are no animals outside in cold weather, you can see through the glass from the other side.

The zoo is great.! A little bit about the Dolphinarium (if anyone is going) - satisfactory, Stanislav Smironov, "trainer, trainer" - a specific boor! You need to put it in place right away ! Posing as a "great" child, he won the main prize - swimming with a dolphin, due to the fact that he cannot swim, he was asked to replace it with a photo. Was it forbidden to touch a dolphin when taking pictures, despite the fact that bathing was provided!? They took pictures on our phone, very mediocre, according to the principle - just to get behind. I didn't want to spoil my mood, but I had a great desire to send them and write a complaint to the management of the Dolphinarium. The performance itself lasts 30 minutes, 15 minutes of the "coach" advertise additional purchases - 25 bel.rubles.

Everything is in Minsk style , there are a lot of animals, the aviaries are spacious , the terrarium and the aquarium look decent .. At the entrance, they sell food for the price of 2byn , you can feed some animals .. If you come with a child, he will be delighted, the approximate visit time is 2-3 hours!! You can take photos everywhere, but without a flash!! There is a cafe to have a snack , prices are acceptable ... Bio toilets, good condition , no gadyushnik ☺️ There is a dolphinarium and a Dino park , there is a 1BYN surcharge to the main ticket to the dinopark , I will not say I did not visit the dolphinarium .. Catamarans can be rented and take a ride on the pond, 10byn 15 minutes, many different birds..

Nice big zoo. I was in it in the winter. It was cold. And it was clear that the animals were shivering from the cold. I liked the exoterarium the most, there is a waterfall and everything is done very beautifully. I didn't have enough animals like elephant, giraffe, hippopotamus.

The zoo is quite large and has an interesting infrastructure. Quite a lot of animals. There are rare specimens. Of course, we went to see the bison and they are very powerful! And the llamas were the most fun of all, buy food at the entrance and feed them boldly, they eat right from their hands, quite carefully, but do not forget that these are wild animals. Of course, the predators were impressed, but I wanted more monkeys. In general, I highly recommend it. By the way, there is a playground for children, but I won't tell you the prices, probably, as well as the food is not cheap.

A very compact zoo and this is a huge plus, it is not stretched like many zoos, but at the same time it is very roomy! And lions and Bengal tigers, and birds and deer and terrarium and mongooses and many, many things! And like the cherry on the cake - dolphinarium and dinosarium! 🙂
I recommend a mandatory visit!

Everything is fine at the zoo, the dolphinarium is great. I would recommend paying attention to some birds - the sides are stripped from feathers to skin... Or are they sick...? Then take them out of your eyes, otherwise they spoil the impression. And yet - the working hours of the catering points should correspond to the working hours of the zoo itself, and not be 3 hours less, but at least drink some water?! And offer food in cups for animals more actively, so that at every corner. Thanks

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!

When you arrive in Minsk, be sure to visit the zoo. It's big- lay down exactly three hours for inspection. The animals look well-groomed, the enclosures are quite large. We got to feed the animals for lunch - I can tell by the portions that at some point I wanted to become a pet of the zoo myself)))The animals are well maintained: they are not afraid of the staff, they even played with the girls
