Spend a day at Copenhagen Zoo, set in the green heart of Frederiksberg. Walk beneath Foster's elephant house, watch polar bears in the Arctic habitat, and queue for a look at the pandas.
Full description
Copenhagen Zoo covers a large, leafy site in Frederiksberg with animals from across the world, including the elephant house designed by Norman Foster, an Arctic area with polar bears and the giant pandas that many visitors name as their highlight. Reviewers describe spacious enclosures, clean grounds and reasonable prices, and the layout makes it easy to spend a full morning or most of a day.
It is a natural choice for families with children, though adults interested in architecture and animal habitats find plenty to see as well.

Reviews
Enjoyed our visit to Copenhagen Zoo. Lots of different animals here with spacious enclosures. The zoo felt clean and well maintained and the animals well looked after. Prices were reasonable, and there was good range of food and drink options around the zoo. We bought tickets for the tower which gave great views…
