Khao Kheow Open Zoo
สวนสัตว์เปิดเขาเขียว
One of Thailand's largest open-range zoos, where you can drive yourself or ride a park shuttle to see giraffes, zebras, and hippos. Night zoo tours are also offered.
Khao Kheow Open Zoo lies in Si Racha district of Chonburi Province, about 40 km from Pattaya. It covers roughly 800 hectares, and its animals roam free across large open areas. You can drive, rent a golf cart, or ride a park shuttle to get around. The zoo offers giraffe feeding, pygmy hippos, a large bird park, zebras, and deer herds. Night zoo tours are offered from the evening. Admission is priced separately for adults and children, and foreign visitors pay more than Thai visitors. The park is large and hot, so renting a car is recommended, and bring your own sunscreen and drinking water.
