About the Zoo

Reopened in 2021

After almost four years of reconstruction, the Baku Zoo reopened fully renewed: spacious enclosures, an aquaterrarium, a petting zoo and an artificial lake. The grounds nearly doubled in size.

Today the park is more than a family outing — it is a centre for education and species conservation, with special attention to the unique nature of Azerbaijan.
