Arignar Anna Zoological Park

Commonly referred to as the Vandalur Zoo, the Arigar Anna Zoological Park was set up in 1855! Previously the zoo came under criticism for poor living conditions for the animals. Since then the zoo has revamped and now features far more open enclosures for animals without cages. There’s even a 74-acre lion park, which you can take a safari ride in. The Vandalur zoo has the most animals you can see from any entry on this list and is home to some of the most endangered and rare animals. White lions, Himalayan Black Bears, Rheas, Sambar are just some of the exotic species of animals there. In fact, to see the zoo fully, we’d recommend spending an entire day here at least.
