 would be charming if even just a park by richiecdisc The Dusit Zoo is one of the premier facilities of its kind in all of Southeast Asia with an incredible assortment of birds (800), mammals (300), and reptiles (200) in a lush shady setting that doubles as a great getaway from the noisy hectic city. It’s a good place to observe Thais as it attracts more locals than foreign visitors. As with all of Bangkok, there is cheap and tasty food/snacks. At only 20 B (50 cents), it is a bargain. The best part was as soon as we entered the compound, before we even got to the enclosures, we spotted a huge monitor lizard in the scenic lake that is the park’s centerpiece. It looked like a crocodile but was so sleek and elegant on getting out of the water. Leave a Comment

 The entrance by SirRichard Once part of the Royal Dusit Palace, this park was made zoo in 1938. It has a big lake where you can hire paddleboats too. There are many food stalls and is a good place to come for a walk on weekends. Elephants rides anda nimal feeding shows are other attractions here. Open 08-18h. 20 Bahts admission fee Leave a Comment

 Tiger at the zoo by SumTingWong Dusit Zoo in Bangkok is a nice place to spend an afternoon. Here you can relax and see some of the world's most interesting animals. There is an awsome snake room at the zoo (although it costs about 20 baht extre to enter, well worth it). Dusit Zoo is also one of the only places in Thailand where you can still see a Tiger!

Quite a good zoo. Children will probably love it as it has the usual guests: tigers, giraffes,hippos and the rest. The elephants were as you can imagine quite popular. There is as well a lake where you can rent one of those waterboats with pedals and pedal for half an hour ( 50 baths the 1/2 hour) and see the gardens. In the lake there are fish, alligators and turtles. Careful not to run them over ;-) The access to the zoo is really cheap, 30 baths per person and as I said children will love it and it won't break the bank The grounds used to be originally the private botanical gardens of king Rama V and you can see still the different species of flora cultivated here.

by arni When you are fed up with the traffic, head for the Dusit Zoo ('kau din' in Thai). Forget about the animals, allthough the Zoo has improved in the last couple of years, and watch the Thai families peddling on the lake. Or rent a boat yourself. Lots of benches and shady trees here.

A good place to visit for a few hours. The Zoo is quite large and is surrounded by gardens. The entrance fee is about 20 baht. The Zoo has Elephants, Hippo's, a very good monkey display, Lions, Tigers, Black Panthers, birds, Sun Bears, reptiles, and other animals. A good place to spend a few hours walking around there is also plenty of shade around the grounds. The Zoo is very popular with Thai's for having family picnics. Across the Road from the Zoo is the Kings palace which is interesting to look at from the outside. Will take 10-15 mins by Taxi from Siam area of the city. Leave a Comment

by yuet29 There is not much to see in Dusit Zoo. But it is still a nice place to spend an afternoon or evening if you have no other places to go. The entrance fee for Dusit Zoo is 30B and it charged extra 10B if you want to enter the reptile section. Leave a Comment Directions: Take bus #70 from KhaoSan.

Dusit Zoo makes for a fun day out, whether you're with kids or not. The place is quite large, and the animals are in enclosures (mostly not cages) with pleasant walkways and gardens inbetween - and quite a few kiosks as well so you can keep yourself well watered and snacked. There are also paddleboats on the lake, games for kids... We went midweek, and the place was quiet apart from a few school groups. Figure at least a few hours for this place, which makes a nice break from the city. We took a boat to Tha Thewet and then a tuk tuk. Entry to the zoo was 100B each. There is a central food court, with few English speakers around - but all have their basic menu with an English translation. Cheap and tasty... Leave a Comment
