Darjeeling Zoo

This is where you can actually see some of the high-altitude amazing Himalayan animals and some endangered species that are rarely seen anywhere else in the world. In India, this is the largest high-altitude zoo. It spans across 67.5 acres of area at an average altitude of 7,000ft (2133m). India's former Prime Minister late Indira Gandhi dedicated this zoo in memory of Padmaja Naidu. She was an ex-Governor of West Bengal and the daughter of Sarojini Naidu, a national leader and a poet. Since then the zoo is officially known as the Padmaja Naidu Himalayan Zoological Park, but more commonly as Darjeeling Zoo. This zoo which is located at the Birch Hill area (now known as Jawahar Parvat) was established in 1958. It was then known as the Himalayan Zoological Park.
