Though the zoo is nice, it could be better if it was maintained properly. The new attractions are dying. The lion, the tiger aren't taken proper care of. There are better things to do in Dhaka. But you should go for it.

Its a huge area but very unfortunate that its not maintained anyway near to the pass mark. There is an entry fee to get in and paid parking area is not secured at all, its mainly a bus stand, they park and repair nearby. So if you bring a car bring a driver along to stay with it. Its dirty all the way with some little exception, limited seating areas, expensive food, lack of food hygiene, animals kept in dirty unhygienic stinky environment, lack of safety, week old worn cages and I probably keep on and on. They have reasonable number of animals here but some of them are very old. It used to be good long time ago but it lost its youth; maybe.

The zoo is very dirty and it's maintenance is horrible. Very dirty sits and walkway. There are average numbers of animals but the environment you may not enjoy since this is a very dirty place. and don't eat anything inside. They charge way too high price. Truly speaking this is not a tourist friendly area
