Madrid Zoo Photos

  The Zoo of Madrid is in the Casa de Campo of Madrid (about 30 minutes from downtown Madrid altogether). It costs about 15 euros to get in for adults and 13 for children and senior citizens. I've been going to this zoo for years and I just got my second season pass for me and the family (3 people for 112 euros for a year). In other words, I highly recommend it.

I'll be renovating the Madrid zoo section for some time. The old zoo photos page (minus the photos that I've been moving to other pages including this one) is here: More Zoo Photos.
