Description:
While the zoo is not huge, it is plenty of distraction for children in the Bangkok heat. Dusit Zoo has been open since the 1950s and occupies a 47-acre space not far from attractions such as the Grand Palace. You'll see monkeys, giraffes, chimpanzees, crocodiles and elephants. Alternatives include
Siam Ocean World over at
Siam Paragon mall or a day's trip outside of Bangkok to the expansive
Khao Kheow Open Zoo.
