Where we going after Summer? The Zoo!


Helo guys...how are you..nice to see you again through this article...

This morning I wonder, where we will be going after the end of Summer? Since my husband is on duty at New Delhi, I have plenty time to browsing the net... :)
Then I start browse the net and entering http://www.splendidrabia.com . There I find interesting place : THE ZOO ! Yeah, Riyadh Zoo at Malaz. At the beautifully spread out landscape and marvelously set terrains, this zoological park has an area of 55 acres and consists of more than 1500 animals in 40 species that let ones good amount of time to be spent in an animal world. The zoo was opened in the year 1987.

What interesting place to visit specially for my daughter. Furthermore, I need to take a lot of animal pictures and change them into cartoon image and start to write my new children ebook. I'll share the ebook in this blog as soon as possible for free (Hopefully they can be completed soon :) ).

I can find information about the zoo at this website as following :
1. The best time to visit the zoo will be during winter due to the fact that during summer, most of the animals prefer to stay in shadowy interiors
2. You have prayer halls, toilets, restaurants and small cafes inside the zoo.
3. A good number of species in the zoo are on the world's endangered species list.
4. They held a show : Two harbor seals demonstrate its talents to get hold of its food from the trainer.
5. The best time to visit for family is Thursday and Friday.
6. Timing for visitors :

Flamingoes at Riyadh Zoo

You get a flamingo welcome as you enter the gates of the zoo. A large amount of these wading birds, native to tropical brackish waters, in its free world are a real attraction of the zoo.

An appreciable factor at the zoo is the accurate setting of the landscapes and terrains for the animals that suites its natural habitat
