First zoo in India, created in 1855. This was shifted from the then Madras City to Vandalur Reserve Forest .Vandalur Zoo is not another ordinary zoo in India. It is one of the biggest Zoological park in South East Asia.
It is loaded with almost all important animals like lion, tiger, monkeys, white tiger, hippopotamus, rhinoceros, crocodiles, giraffe, elephant, birds, reptiles, fish and some rare species too .Walking through the full zoo without rest takes 4-5 hours.
If you cannot walk and want to see all the animals, take cycle or battery operated car(1 hour ride with stops in animal cages).
Well-maintained Zoo.Cheap ticket price that is valid for the whole day.A real treat for kids.Neat roads.
Has drinking water in many places.Huts available where you can take rest. Stone benches available here and there. Waste bins available in many places. Not very crowded until its a long weekend and holidays. Vandalur Zoo Chennai is the best option to spend a whole day.
