There are many types of animals to see. The snake park is very exciting. The white tiger and white peacock are the main attractions. There are boards displaying useful info about animals. It's a cool place full of trees. Must to visit.

The most attractive thing in this place is Snakes and their variety. Other animals are also there but not so much to see. Also the place is too lengthy and not suitable to visit in afternoon time, There is hardly anything to get relax under,

If you are visiting Pune, Rajiv Gandhi Zoological Park (RGZP) is well worth a visit. It is bang opposite the Katraj Milk Scheme plant, which any auto driver will know. Plenty of buses available from Swargate. About 12 kms from Pune Railway Station. If you like nature and wildlife, you will not be disappointed. It is a big park, set... More
