• Location and extent[edit]. Minsk Zoo is situated in the southeast part of Minsk in the floodplain of the river Svisloch.
  • The last time we visited the Minsk Zoo was in May 2024. Everything was clean everywhere, and the smell of animals is rarely heard.
  • Visited Minsk Zoo today for the first time. ... The zoo is quite small and the cages are too little for the animals. Two hours are enough to see all of them.
  • Minsk Zoo consists of several segments, where exotic fish, reptiles, tropical birds and animals of Belarusian forests feel perfectly well.
  • Visitors can see there waterfalls, large aquariums, terrariums, open-air enclosures and more. Exotarium in the Minsk zoo is a unique project for the CIS.
  • In addition to the classic enclosures, the Minsk Zoo includes a terrarium, a dolphinarium, an aquarium and a pavilion of the fauna of South America.
