The most advantageous way to visit Riga ZOO is to purchase a personalised subscription, which can be used every day during the year and experience different seasons in the animal world. This will help not only the first to meet the zoo's newcomers - recently born and arriving animals - but also not miss out on annual events!
It is also possible to visit Riga national Zoo branch “Cīruļi” with Rīga ZOO annual subscription. The subscription is valid for one year from the time it is purchased.
Riga National zoological garden is the oldest zoo in the Baltic States, which boasts about 400 animal species and about 3,000 animals. Its overall strategic objective is to maintain the only national zoo, to educate the public about the fauna of Latvia and the world and its protection, to promote healthy lifestyle and tourism with the offer of quality recreation, to carry out research and to contribute to the conservation of rare and disappearing species, while ensuring a high level of welfare for zoo animals.
Rīga ZOO is a great place to enjoy walks in the picturesque Mežaparks, while observing the all sorts of animals - from the stately giraffes and brave lions to active ants and coloured fish.
You'll be able to find something new and unseen at the Rīga ZOO every time of the year. Different animals can be seen both outside and in indoors – in a Tropical house, Terrarium, Aquarium and elsewhere.
It is possible to use a picnic area as well and a children's playground area, snacks and refreshments, and, above all, clean air in the forest surroundings in animal society.
