Taronga Zoo - Sydney, New South Wales, Australia



Taronga zoo has an excellent location situated on a hillside overlooking Sydney Harbour. With just a short and scenic ferry ride past the Sydney Opera House and Harbour Bridge, you can easily spend a whole day at the zoo. The best way to see everything is to catch the gondola to the top of the zoo and work your way left and right down the hill. Probably the most popular animals are the elephants and especially the babies Pathi Harn and Luk Chai so you will see lots of photos of them here. Some shows that you can watch include feeding time for the gorillas and the spectacular bird show.
