Taipei Zoo

The Taipei Zoo (台北市立動物園), one of the world's top ten metropolitan zoos, houses over four hundred species of animals, making it one of the largest zoos in Southeast Asia. It takes at least a full day to explore the entire zoo, and its rich exhibition areas and comprehensive audio guide services make it an unmissable tourist resource. In the past few years, the newly completed ""Pangolin House,"" featuring the image of the Formosan pangolin, showcases the ecology of the Asian tropical rainforest and is a must-see highlight! The diversity of the Taipei Zoo (台北市立動物園) is a major factor that many parents love to bring their children to visit.

If you don't want to walk around in the sun, the indoor exhibition halls include the Penguin House, Koala House, Insect House, and Amphibian and Reptile House, where you can admire the unique charm of these animals up close. Among the many adorable animals, the most popular are the pandas, koalas, and penguins, which attract many children who come just to catch a glimpse of their charming demeanor.
