Step Into the Cage! Alipore Zoo Offers a Unique Winter Experience with Birds
This winter, the iconic Alipore Zoo in Kolkata brings an exciting surprise for visitors: the chance to step directly into an aviary! For the first time, guests can enter a bird enclosure, allowing them to be surrounded by a variety of bird species. While typically entry to enclosures is restricted in most zoos, this new feature at Alipore Zoo marks a unique offering for wildlife enthusiasts in West Bengal.
In celebration of the zoo’s 150th anniversary, the Alipore Zoo administration has designed an elaborate aviary filled with colorful birds from different species. Visitors will be able to walk through designated pathways within the aviary and enjoy a natural, interactive setting to observe and photograph the birds. The aviary promises a refreshing experience, blending the beauty of nature with the thrill of close encounters with wildlife.
Adding to the excitement, the Alipore Zoo will also welcome a new guest this season—a leopard cat from the Bengal Safari in Siliguri. This rare addition marks the first arrival of a leopard cat at Alipore Zoo, adding yet another attraction for visitors to explore.
The concept of allowing guests inside enclosures is popular in some other states, but Alipore Zoo is the first in West Bengal to introduce such an opportunity. The aviary experience includes a specially designed walking path and plenty of photography-friendly spots to make the visit truly memorable. Around 12 different bird species will grace the aviary, providing an extraordinary sight for bird lovers and families alike.
Alipore Zoo is committed to offering new and innovative experiences, making it a must-visit destination for all ages this winter season. So, gear up for a close encounter with nature and get ready to capture some unforgettable moments!
