Diergaarde Blijdorp

Officially, Diergaarde Blijdorp is called the Foundation Royal Rotterdam Zoo. Diergaarde Blijdorp is 34 hectares in size, which is why Diergaarde Blijdorp also has different addresses.

About Blijdorp Zoo

Diergaarde Blijdorp is located in the Blijdorp district in Rotterdam Noord. Roam the African Savannah and come face to face with the giraffes. Visit gorilla Bokito and his family, walk on the seabed in the fully covered Oceanium and meet stingrays and sharks. Stroll through the largest butterfly paradise in Europe: Amazonica, full of wonderfully scented flowers, thousands of South American butterflies, anacondas and biting piranhas.
