Tourist attraction Zoo

😠 You can see that the animals here are suffering. Lions and white tigers look like they where drugged. The bear was moving in circles endlessly and didn’t stop. This place needs to be regulated correctly, hope someone will look in to it and maybe move those animals to where they belong. People often mention animals, glass, cages, clean, lions, kids, care, Good, good, time,

    This place needs financial support to keep it running. I take my children regularly to learn more about animals and see the monkeys and the endangered Syrian brown bear.

    (Translated by Google) The park is old and seems to be neglected in the tools and service areas ... although it has a number of rare animal species that look well. The white tiger, the black one, the one bear, the number of birds and the llama, but it needs attention. And a number of roses .. The ticket price is 1 dinar .. The pictures show you the atmosphere of the park in general and the animals in it. (Original) الحديقة قديمة و يبدو انه اصابها الاهمال في الادوات و المناطق الخدمية...رغم انها بها عدد من انواع الحيوانات النادرة و التي تبدو بشكل جيد. النمر الابيض..الاسود..دب واحد..عدد من الطيور و حيوان اللاما لكنه بحاجة الى عناية. و عدد من القرورد.. سعر التذكرة دينار.. الصور تظهر لكم جو الحديقة بشكل عام و الحيوانات بها.

    Well, I appreciate the renovation this zoo went through - instead of small cages now there are big enclosures with glass windows so locals won't be able to stick anything inside, like they do in other zoos which gives animals some protection. White lions and tigers are magnificent.

    Normal Zoo, the prices are ok. Good for seeing the animals and good for kids.

    Terrible Zoo, animals look dead, and don’t expect to see lions and tigers the way they appear in the pictures, the glass is incredibly dirty we couldn’t see through any of of the cages even if you press your whole face up against the glass it’s impossible to see any animals, 80% of the zoo is pigeons cages & ducks if i could give this zoo -1 star i would, prices are also not as advertised, it is also very very small, 5 minutes & you’ve lapped the whole zoo twice very tiny zoo

    You can find lions, monkeys, birds, deer, and tigers. Wheelchair accessible or stroller. The tickets are priced one jd pair person as I recall. A bit old and smelly but safe I would say and not crowded with people. Will return 👍🏻

    Very bad place. Very smelly, un clean, and the animals are miserable. They charge 1JD entrance fee. It's not much, but they don't deserve it. Also, keep in mind that paying them you encourage them to abuse animals in such a very inhumane way

An interesting and enjoyable garden.

    Very small Zoo, if we can call it a Zoo in the first place, maybe a fixed animals show. Not that clean and the cages are small for some of the animals. Good to visit as it is the only available in the area especially for the kids to see such animals in their naked eyes. I wish them to become better with time

    (Translated by Google) It lacks services, especially the toilet for the elderly and the sick, and if it is found after a great effort, you find the toilets lacking services even though they have the money. Thank you. (Original) تفتقر للخدمات وخاصه التواليت لكبار السن والمرضى وان وجد بعد جهد كبير تجد التواليت يفتقر للخدمات رغم حصولهم على المال وشكرا

    (Translated by Google) Dirty and dirtier A place with a world of unpleasant smell, very disgusting baths, very waste, dirt and dirt in every garden, and it is not classified as a container because the container cleans up once a day, at least I do not recommend visiting a disease complex and there are only some sick, miserable animals full of insects (Original) اوسخ واقذررر مكان بلعالم الرائحه الكريها وحمامات مقرفه جدااا جدااا والنفايات والاوساخ بكل الحديقه ولا تصنف حاويه لان الحاويه تنظف مره كل يوم ع الاقل لا انصح بزيارتهاااا ابداااا مجمع امراض ولا يوجد الا بعض الحيوانات المريضه البائسه المليئه ب الحشرات

    It needs a lot of maintenance and attention. I think it will become a more wonderful place if it is taken care of. We wish you success.

  • 2/5 Lubna “Lubna.B” A. 6 months ago on Google • 38 reviews
    Given that we barely have zoos in amman, we did see a variety of animals for a 1 Jd entry fee. But I would never take my kids there, sadly people there do not behave in the best way possible, they annoy the animals and throw their trash everywhere, not to mention the word of choice we heard was horrible.. of course the animals aren’t in the best condition possible, and the lions glass cage was fixed with normal tape..

  • 3/5 abedelkareem m. 6 months ago on Google • 13 reviews
    It need more care and cleaning, the glas surrounding the lions cage not clean and not clear for watching

  • 4/5 Husam A. 3 years ago on Google
    Finally, this zoo is renovated. Animals are in a much better shape than before, the place is much cleaner than it used to be.

  • 1/5 Teresa Hernández F. 3 years ago on Google
    Please send these animals back to the wildlife. Wallah this is so bad, they are sad and living in poor conditions. They are wild but they live a life in prison. How do you feel about that? THINK

  • 2/5 Linda O. 4 years ago on Google
    It was a wired experience, the place wasn't clean, the smell was bad and the animals were in bad conditions. It's obvious there is no enough caring.

  • 3/5 Homam A. 3 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) There are beautiful animals, but the glass is not taken care of, so seeing the animals is difficult and there are some old cages that do not care for their hygiene. There are some beautiful animals, but the glass is not clean so the vision is blurry in some cages, and there are some cages that are not cleaned well. (Original) يوجد حيوانات جميلة، لكن الزجاج غير معتنى به لذلك رؤية الحيوانات صعبة ويوجد بعض الاقفاص القديمة والغير معتنى بنظافتها. There are some beautiful animals, but the glass is not clean so the vision is blurry in some cages, and there are some cages that are not cleaned well.

    Awful place, my son got bitten by a baboon there, and that’s not even mentioning the depressed animals and how they are treated. But would definitely recommend if you want a rabies shot for your son.

  • 1/5 MOHAMMAD AL SHAIKH H. 2 years ago on Google
    So poor in cleaning and arrangements. The animal parks looking like a cages rather than an real relaxing life for them. No much activities with the animals (most of the time the animals found sleeping, probably bored) No usable bathroom. Don't recommend if you high expectations.!! 😒😒😒

  • 1/5 Ahmad Q. 1 year ago on Google
    Total disappointment, total failure to the tourism. These are the perfect places to reflect why people do not prefer visiting Jordan... All this place must be removed from the earth.

  • 1/5 Ash C. 1 year ago on Google
    What a sad place to visit. That place should be shut down. Animals look malnourished. We found lots of broken glass bulbs in the bear cage. Its horrible.

  • 2/5 Rawashdeh 2 years ago on Google
    Honestly, it is a very good place to find all types of animals, but the place itself has clearly passed its time for redevolpment, very trashy, the park within the zoo is unusable as it all has become old and the metal became corosive, if you just want to see animals then this is the place for a cheap intrance fee of 1jd, not the worst but not great

  • 4/5 Anas Q. 1 year ago on Google

    (Translated by Google) Very very very bad Very old equipment that needs maintenance, adding toys for children, and paying more attention to animal cages and hygiene ..... The number of animals is very few The city is depressing and looks from the Stone Age equipment and machines are very old and broken.

    (Translated by Google) Clean and tidy, but there are two notes, which is the glass overlooking the lion's den is not clear and needs cleaning, and the second note is the games in there. Ticket prices are high for families. (Original) نظيف ومرتب ، ولكن يوجد ملاحظتان وهي الزجاج المطل على عرين الاسود غير واضح وبحاجه الى تنظيف والملاحظه الثانيه هي الالعاب الموجوده هناك اسعار التذاكر مرتفعه للعائلات

  • 1/5 Z D. 3 years ago on Google
    1JD entrance fee People in this country don't know how to look after themselves never mind the animals. Poor conditions , not a zoo it's a back garden. Animals look sad , they have wild tigers and lions. Some looked malnourished. I'm guessing they don't have vets. I'm guessing they are just kept like farm animals. I didn't visit to enjoy myself , I went to see the horrible conditions. The kids banging on the windows annoying the Tigers. I had to make comment on the silly children so the parents could hear me. Let's pray the wild cats get their own back soon on the weird people working there.
