High Altitude Zoo Reviews
Nainital's Zoo is slightly different from all others as it is built on a slope, a phenomenon not seen in many zoos. It was a newly built zoo at the time of my visitation, scope of expansion was still there and new animals were to be set in.
It was time to experience some wildlife. Pt. G.B. Pant High Altitude Zoo is a high altitude zoo situated on the Sher Ka Danda hill at a height of 2,100 metres (6,900 ft) above sea-level. The only High Altitude Zoo in north India, besides those in Darjeeling and Sikkim. AMAZING! Isn't it?
