Dusit Zoo (Khao Din Wana)

$$
Known forzoofamilyanimalsDusit
Bangkok's beloved historic zoo set within the royal Dusit district, home to over 1,600 animals including rare white tigers, pygmy hippos, and a well-regarded reptile house. The grounds are genuinely green and pleasant, making it a favorite family outing for Bangkokians rather than a tourist trap. The zoo underwent significant renovations and remains one of the more humane and well-maintained zoological parks in Southeast Asia. Go on a weekday to avoid school groups and arrive before 10am before the heat builds.
