Thu Le Park

Thu Le Park is a great place to spend a day or a few hours while on vacation in Hanoi. It also contains over 40 animal enclosures containing over 600 animals representing over 100 species. Consequently, if you are an animal lover and want to feel the dynamic natural beauty of the city, you must visit Thu Le Park. Additionally, you can enjoy water rides. The younger members of your family or your children will adore this location.

The greatest time to visit Thu Le Zoo is during the summer, in the late afternoon while the sun is setting. The reason for this is that animals tend to sunbathe more frequently in the summer; therefore, the afternoon should be optimal to escape the intense heat of the sun. As is common for a zoo, though, the park is somewhat odorous.

The only way to reach Thu Le Park is to travel to the end of Kim Ma Road, directly next to the iconic Hanoi Daewoo Hotel. Both of the park’s entrances are accessible, one on Kim Ma Street and the other on Buoi Road. Taxi and motorcycle are the best modes of mobility, although Bus No. 9 is also available (read more about Hanoi bus).
