Hanover Zoo
Many happy hours were spent in the Zoo when Philip was
small. It was a popular outing for lots of parents of small children.
The parking was good. An annual season ticket was very reasonably priced.
Philip enjoyed looking at the animals - usually running ahead to see
his favourites - and he always insisted on a pony ride!
Apart from the animals, the Zoo boasted an extremely good playground
and lots of kiosks where drinks or more substantial sustenance could
be procured.
During our recent holiday, we were able to experience some of the improvements
made to the Zoo over the past 6 years - it hardly felt like the same
place. We were able to cruise along the Zambesi and see the African
wildlife, visit the Jungle Palace - home to elephants and big cats,
climb the Gorilla mountain and visit Meyers Hof - a German farm.
Many of the improvements were made for Expo2000, but more are planned
- a container was waiting to be unpacked from Hudson's Bay!
Anyone visiting Hanover could find something to interest and entertain
in the Zoo.
