Harinalaya MiniZoo

Zoo

👍👍 Entry ticket cost is very less. The variety of fishes kept inside the aquariums are in significant numbers. The aquariums are extremely well maintained and properly lit. Do visit this place once you visit Alipur Zoological Gardens. It's situated just opposite to the zoo's main gate, adjacent to Taj... People often mention animals, kids, park, birds, visit, good, deer, mini, small, Nice,

    Animals & Nature are stress killers so is this place. So if you are stressed out or an animal lover you have both reasons to visit this place. Ticket price at Rs 50 per person with ample parking area. This place at Eco Park Newtown is a great place to spend a relaxing time. I loved the way animals are kept and being very well maintained at this ZOO. Most of the animals are imported. Zoo is newly opened so lot of renovations are going on to onboard more animals. I am sure in future it will be a bigger zoo. This place is not only for kids but even adults would have great time. It has beautiful Giraffes, all kinds of birds, Zebra , Deer 🦌 and show stopper is the Hippopotamus. Zoo closes at 6 PM sharp so try to reach before 5 PM if you really want to enjoy the place. It has a small cafe inside.

    A peaceful & serene mini-zoo. Very less crowded area. Near 6no. gate of Eco Park. Part of Eco park, still away from crowds. There are quite a lot of beautiful birds & few animals here. Ticket price is 30rs per person. Car parking is available. We had a nice experience here. Highly recommended place while visiting to Kolkata❤️

    It's a wonderful place for KIDS. You will have a taste of the mini zoo for sure. Your kids will love this place to share. Entry fee is ₹50/- per head . Parking is also available just outside the gate. There is no need to travel up to Alipore Zoo as here you will have various animals and birds. So, bring your kids in the weekend and have fun with your family.

    Harinalaya is a mini zoo located in Newtown, Kolkata, West Bengal. It was established in 2017 and is still under development. The zoo currently houses a variety of animals, including deer, birds, crocodiles, hippopotamuses, zebras, and giraffes. There are also plans to add tigers and lions in the future. The zoo is open from 10:00 AM to 6:00 PM, 7 days a week. The entrance fee is INR 50 for adults and INR 25 for children. Here is a review of Harinalaya zoo based on my research: Pros: The zoo is located in a beautiful setting and is well-maintained. The animals are well-cared for and seem to be healthy. There are plenty of shade trees and benches, making it a comfortable place to spend a few hours. There is a small cafe on site where you can buy snacks and drinks. The zoo is wheelchair accessible. Cons: The zoo is still under development, so some of the animal enclosures are small. There is not a lot of information about the animals, such as their species or where they come from. The zoo is not very big, so you can see everything in a few hours.

    Deer park of Newtown. You will get to see all the peaceful animals and this zoo is also a part of Alipore zoo. It is clean and maintained. However, we need to be responsible also for this cleanliness. The total experience was good. There is one "Nature's cafe" situated inside the zoo. The area is not so vast, so you don't need to spend half a day here. Only 1 to 2 hours is enough for this.

    It was a treat to the eyes to watch healthy animals roaming around. The process of adoption is impressive. Eco park Harinalaya offers a delightful experience for animal enthusiasts. With a variety of creatures from Giraffe ; Zebra to colorful birds, entertaining visit for families. The well-maintained enclosures ensure a comfortable habitat for the animals, fostering a sense of environmental responsibility. Visitors can learn about different species through informative placards, adding an educational touch to the outing. The park's layout allows for a leisurely stroll, creating a relaxed atmosphere. Beautiful flowers and garden ..

    Aquarium zoo is best place for fish lovers.. 3 rooms and 30 different types of fishes available.... .. I saw some of the unique fishes.. but I was expecting more... I expected a very big area which could include a dolphin 🐬 or may b shark 🦈 or a mini 🐳 but their are only small fishes... that van also be kept in your home aquarium.. so.. I gave only 4 stars 🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟 Government should increase this area.. and should bring some more fishes.. into this aquarium.. I have posted some of photos here... I.e 50++ pics.. those all are stunning and will blow your mind... just have a look and give me review about my pics..... but again I would say I expected a very big area which could include a dolphin 🐬 or may b shark 🦈 or a mini 🐳 but their are only small fishes... that van also be kept in your home aquarium.. so.. I gave only 4 stars 🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟 Government should increase this area.. and should bring some more fishes.. into this aquarium..

Beautiful flowers and garden. This is the 2nd Zoo after Alipore Zoo in Kolkata and it's surrounding. This zoo is located just opposite to Eco park Gate No.5 and 6 in Newtown.The zoo is newly opened and it is still under construction. Ticket price is Rs.50/ for above 5 yrs and Rs.20/ for below 5 yrs. Opening time is from 10AM to 6 PM. Though the area is very small but the overall planning of arrangement and decoration is just awesome. You will just fall in love in first look. There are various types of birds 🐦 , monkeys 🐒 , Giraffe 🦒, Zebra, Crocodile 🐊, Deer 🦌, Hippocampus and etc. Children will love the atmosphere. There is resturant inside it. Food is tasty but the price of every food is too much. You can find few food stalls outside the main gate. In the front gate "Out side Food is not allowed" poster is there but I see almost everyone is carrying food inside the zoo with themselves 🤔 Inside the zoo drinking water is available. One children park, toilet building, breastfeeding room are available. You can spend a quality time with your family here. Maximum time required to cover the zoo is 1 hour. I think when the total work will complete then it will the one of the beautiful zoo in India. There is no need to travel up to Alipore Zoo as here you will have various animals and birds.

    Found only two types of deer; chital and barking deer. One of the two fauna parks in eco park apart from the butterfly park. Weekends are crowded but very peaceful on weekdays. Visit preferably in the evening just before closing during summer as there is no shade. In winter, day visits are fine.

    The space available for roaming is too less. The dear hardly come close to you, they remain in the their shades. When I visited the place, the nearest distance that deer had between was not less than 100 metres. Its better not to visit the place during daytime due to the heat.

You have to go through a long 2 paved way and in the middle there is an round structure where you can sit and rest. Quite place with some trees. Mostly people who visit Eco Park they comes here with children. Park fees is high than what you get. So, people who visited 1st time they hardly come here later.

    Another great addition to the already awesome and versatile Ecopark. Two types of deers can be seen, barking deer and spotted deer. There is also a healthy number of deers. Kids will love them and enjoy them. Ticket price is 30. Seating area is also present. Highly recommended. Will visit again.

  • 3/5 Swapnendu M. 4 years ago on Google
    Just beside the hustle bustle of Eco Park, Harinalaya is cool place for relaxation. But the Deers are very less in number and they stay so far from the visitors fence that neither one can take a picture nor properly see them. This reduces interest for a re-visit

    (Translated by Google) About a year ago I visited this Deer Park adjacent to Ecopark. The bus from Dumdum railway station is approaching the gate at EcoPark No. 1, a short walk can be reached here. One person has to pay admission fee of Rs. But not a very entertaining place, some deer can be seen but there will be no desire to go more than once. However, the place can be fun for the children. (Original) প্রায় এক বছর আগে ইকোপার্ক সংলগ্ন এই Deer Park(হরিণালয়) গিয়েছিলাম। দমদম রেলওয়ে স্টেশন থেকে বাসে করে ইকোপার্কের ৪নং গেটের কাছে নেমে একটু খানিক পথ হাঁটলে এখানে পৌছানো যায়। ব্যক্তিপিছু ৩০টাকা করে প্রবেশ মূল্য প্রদান করতে হয়। তবে খুব একটা বিনোদনমূলক জায়গা নই, কিছু হরিণ দেখতে পাওয়া যায় তবে একবারের বেশি যাওয়ার খুব একটা ইচ্ছা হবে না। তবে শিশুদের জন্য জায়গাটি আনন্দদায়ক হতে পারে।

    It is ok. Ok to visit once for the sake of experiencing it. But .. not worth it. Hence, if you are coming from far or have another option, I would say go for the other one. But if you want to just sit on a quiet bench or play some badminton, or frisbee, be there once.

    Aquatic lives are much different than normal terrestrial lives. Aquatic animals are those that live inside water. They have a provision in body to make their respiration. These aquatic animals are especially characterized as the one who don’t get a close contact with the world outside water. Fish is one good example of aquatic animal. There are many types of aquatic animals. If these animals are in contact with the outer world in the absence of water they can not breathe they die every soon within few minutes. Fish consumes oxygen from inside the water molecules. They can not breathe oxygen normally from the outside air. Many people use fish as their food, but this aquatic animal life is in danger because of continuous decline in their population. There are many factors that cause harm to the aquatic animal’s life. One main reason is the water pollution. Man is the only intelligent animal on earth blessed with the ability to think rationally. But this man has disturbed the life cycle of aquatic animals because of his indiscriminate activities. Many manufacturing companies spread their chemicals, wastages and experimental products inside water. This pollutes the water which is home to the aquatic life. As a result, fishes are unable to breathe even inside water. Polluted water lacks oxygen inside and thus many fishes die even inside water. It is necessary to think on this issue as the aquatic animals and their life are in danger because of man’s mistakes. Aquatic animals involve not only fishes but many other animals. There are many types of snakes also that live inside water. These snakes are also a part of aquatic life. These snakes can be categorized as the aquatic animal. Apart from snakes there are many types of turtles. But turtles, crocodiles and frogs are amphibians that can live inside water as well as on ground because they have got provision inside their body to be able to breathe both inside water as well as on ground. It is responsibility of every human being to take care of aquatic animal and their lives. These species are depleting day by day. If this decline is not stopped right away, soon they will vanish completely.

Though the tickets are very cheap for that much. It's good for kids.

    The entire park is under renovation. Not sure what they have done with the rest of 100+ barking and other deer that were there. Less than 20 are alive now. Staff is extremely rude. The worst part is though the Hirnalay is 90% closed, still you have to pay 30 rupees entry fee to go and eat in the cafe inside. Simply loot! The Nature's Cafe on the other hand is good with courteous staff and decent food. that's what the 2 stars are for.

    The day before yesterday I visited Harinalaya mini zoo with some of my colleagues. It is located beside Ecopark recreational park. The entrance of the zoo is just next to the gate no. 6 of Ecopark. We have seen a number of exotic birds there like Blue and golden Macaw, Abdim's storck, Vernacle goose, Black swan, Sulpher-crested cockatoo etc. We have also seen Marsh water and salt water crocks, spotted and barking deers etc. To our surprise we saw that the two types of deers are kept together in a single big enclosure. The zoo biologist elaborating about the zoo told us that the reason behind it is to provide a jungle like living to the deers where all animals live together. The zoo authority has tried to create all the the enclosures so that the enclosures resembles the animals' natural habitat. We also gathered detailed knowledge on food habit and other livlyhood habits of the animals and how the zoo authority is managing the things. They have also said that they are planning for keeping Asiatic lions, Giraffes, Zebras and many other animals in near future. It was a nice experience altogether, we enjoyed there a lot.

  • 3/5 Tarun S. 2 years ago on Google
    With Rs 30 entry fee , you would not be much thrilled to see only few dears. Major portions are under construction and probably be something attractive soon with more animals. Even to go to Nature's Cafe inside it , you would require entry ticket. Cafe is decent, tast wise good.
