Very quick and easy to order the tickets, we got in the zoo without waiting in line and the zoo was amazing , it looks absolutely phenomenal and no matter how much I walked around there seems to be always something new. Honestly the zoo is a must if you are looking for something in Barcelona and if you want something shorter in a spann of an hour I would recommend the aquarium , I have no words just beautiful and so well built you feel like you are in another realm.

The experience I had at the zoo was a great experience, full of emotions since it was the first time I could see animals of this type so close and so active. In the sense that they were very animated and very well cared for.

Decent enough zoo. Felt like a large number of enclosures were empty.

Located in the heart of the city at Ciutadella Park, a visit to the Barcelona Zoo is ideal for a family day out. It hosts over 400 species of mammals, reptiles and birds, including some that are rare and endangered. The Zoo also hosts school trips for students across all ages in the hopes of better educating people about the importance of rescuing and protecting endangered species and biodiversity in general.

The Zoo has been divided in 11 distinct spaces, each housing certain related species. The Land of Dragons, for instance is dedicated to a set of animals native to Asia Pacific, especially the Komodo dragons that it is named after. At the Terrarium, see one of the most varied collections of amphibians and reptiles in all of Europe including iguanas, poison dart frogs, boa constrictors or pythons!

The primate enclosure was inaugurated in 2006 and is dedicated solely to gorillas, the primates that are closest in nature and biology to human beings. There’s also Aquarama, the zoo's colony of sea lions. The large circular tank of water that houses the sea lions is three stories high and holds two and a half million litres of water. The first floor of Aquarama is also home to a number of species native to the Mediterranean and Atlantic coasts.
