Visit the Most Beautiful Zoo in Europe

Voted best zoo in Europe and awarded three stars in the Green Michelin Guide, Pairi Daiza takes you on a journey through the 5 continents. The animal park is located in Brugelette, on the former Cambron Abbey estate and is the main tourist attraction in Belgium.

Pairi Daiza lets you visit more than 7000 animals in 8 different worlds. These worlds are: The Kingdom of Ganesha, The Middle Kingdom, The Land of the Cold, Cambron-Abbey, Cambron-by-the-Sea, The Land of Origins, The Southern Cape and The Last Frontier. Animals that you can see here include pandas, tigers, wolves, polar bears, walruses, orangutans, gorillas, lions, etc. 

The zoo is also well known for their beautiful world gardens and buildings. In old Persian, Pairi Daiza means "closed garden", which is the oldest name for Paradise. It certainly lives up to this name. Asian temples, African villages, ruins of the former abbey, rose gardens, rice fields, a large Russian Izba, Pairi Daiza brings the beauty of all continents in their themed worlds. 

Pairi Daiza has a great playground for the kids to explore and a 300 meter long adventure rope bridge. There is also a wide range of restaurants and bistros and various picnic areas in the different worlds.

You may need more than 1 day to discover the beauty of the park. That is why you can now choose for a unique overnight stay at Pairi Daiza. There are several options to choose from, all of them offering a fantastic view of the animals from your room. For example, you can see a walrus swimming by, bears and wolves come to your window, or have a view of the enclosure of the penguins.
