Tucked away in Barcelona’s highly frequented Parc de la Ciutadella resides the Barcelona Zoo.
Thanks in part to Spain’s favourable climate, this 13-hectare zoo contains a diverse mix of exotic animals from around the world. Barcelona Zoo is especially known for its primate residents, and it used to be the home of Snowflake, the word’s only known albino gorilla
Barcelona Zoo has been delighting visitors since its opening in September 1892. The zoo features over 400 species and houses popular animals such as the Iberian wolf, hippopotamuses, flamingoes, bottlenose dolphins, Komodo dragons, alligators, boa constrictors, turtles, and many more.
