Melbourne Zoo (Visit this link)


Melbourne Zoo is an historic zoo with an innovative master plan that displays a representative sample of the world's fauna and flora in a series of bioclimatic (or habitat) zones. Melbourne Zoo is clearly one of the world's great zoos.

Melbourne Zoo is Australia's oldest: it opened on this site in 1862. Significant historic features such as the design of the Main Walk and an early 20th Century menagerie exhibit are preserved in an historic zone so visitors will be able to measure the great improvements which have been achieved.
