About Barcelona Zoo

Barcelona Zoo is in the 'Parc de la Ciutadella' and is home to more than 2000 animals from over 300 different species, including both native and exotic species. The zoo has built the animal enclosures to replicate their natural wild habitats and incorporates several zone including:

  • The Aviary: An expansive dome housing a wide variety of bird species living in harmony. You can wander through walkways and listen to the beautiful birdsong and get lost in time!
  • Primates: You can see a range of primates, including chimpanzees, gorillas, and other playful monkeys. The primates thrive in habitats which have been thoughtfully crafted to mirror their natural environments, providing valuable insights into their social dynamics and behaviours. The zoo prioritizes replicating the animals' natural living conditions to ensure their comfort and well-being.
  • Aquatic Creatures: The aquatic section is home to playful Californian sea lions and Humboldt penguins, amongst other graceful creatures. Sea lions, distinguishable from seals by their external ear flaps and flexible rear flippers, often amuse with their playful antics. Penguins, especially the charming Humboldt variety, are a delight to watch as they snack on fish. The section also has a great aquarium section with colourful fish, inviting you to explore the mysteries of the deep!
  • Big Cats: The Feline Kingdom offers a realm where lions, tigers, and leopards roam in spacious enclosures.
