Vienna Zoo, known as Tiergarten Schönbrunn, is one of the largest zoos in the world, opened in 1752. This imperial-era building combines medieval Europe with modern times. The reflections of the Baroque style, which is the famous architectural style of the period, can be seen in the octagonal breakfast pavilion. This unique work, which reflects only a part of the magnificent architecture of the city of Vienna, is one of the most eye-catching places in the modern world.

There are elephants, koalas, giraffes, giant pandas and many more creatures in the zoo. More than 4,000 animals live in the Zoo. Schönbrunn at the Vienna Zoo is the only place in Europe where you can see pandas, with the exception of the Berlin Zoo.
