This combination zoo and botanical garden is the ideal place to while away the early evening. Popular among local families and visitors, the facility is divided into two sections. On one side, see plants and birds in simulated natural habitats. On the other is a diverse array of animals, including many that are on the endangered list. Beautiful fountains punctuate the landscape at this educational attraction. The park also contains some colonial oddities, such as the bronze statue of King George VI, erected in 1941 to commemorate 100 years of British rule. The park's long been a popular date venue, which may explain the large number of couples here in the early evening.
