Product Info

Founded in 1936, Hsinchu Zoo is 86 years old this year and is the oldest zoo still existing on its original site in Taiwan. In 2017, the "Zoo Regeneration Project" was launched, based on three core values: First, animal friendliness, creating cage-free, animal-friendly exhibits with 1.5 times more space for each animal; second, preserving historical memory, with the zoo specially preserving old trees, the Elephant Gate, and other historical buildings, allowing visitors to feel familiar yet full of surprises upon entering the zoo; and third, promoting life education, making the zoo a good place to experience life education, which is an important mission of Hsinchu Zoo. The zoo reopened on December 28, 2019, revitalizing this once-forgotten zoo and making it a popular tourist attraction. The zoo's current top 5 attractions include the historical "Elephant Gate," "Hippo Lele," "Bengal Tiger's New Home Experience," the "Giant Birdcage," and the "Forest Dining Hall."

The "Elephant Gate" was designed by a Japanese architect, modeled after the gate of the Hagenbeck Zoo in Germany. During the zoo's renovation, the team peeled off layers of paint, a total of 13 layers, to reveal the original blue-green color of the elephant's head. Many people still keep childhood photos with the Elephant Gate, and are welcome to take another "time-travel photo" after the zoo reopens! After entering through the elephant gate, the second must-see is the home of the popular star, "Lele the Hippo," on the right. After its "renovation," Lele's living space has doubled. The park has specially installed ultra-low glass viewing windows for young children, creating an "adorable skyline" of about 120-130 centimeters. Not only can children see Lele eating its food, walking ashore and shaking its head, but they can also see Lele's cute appearance sunbathing in the sandpit. Parents no longer need to worry about lifting their children high or getting tired arms from carrying them. The "Rainforest Passage" offers children the chance to see the Bengal tiger twins "Liu Fu" and "Lai Fu" up close, along with their neighbors, the orangutan Xiong Da and the Malayan sun bears Dudu and Winnie the Pooh, a sight that always fills children with excitement and wonder. In fact, from the animals' perspective, we are the humans trapped in this secret passage; who knows who will be watching whom! The "old-fashioned birdcage" has been preserved in the park and transformed into a children's exploration playground with climbing rope nets inside and sandpits around the perimeter. Many children are reluctant to leave once they start playing, and parents can also take the opportunity to relax or take photos for their children. "Forest Canteen" is a stunning family-friendly restaurant that resembles an art gallery. Its simple and clean white design, coupled with large glass curtain walls, allows diners to look out over the tall grass and sparse forest area of ​​the antelope through floor-to-ceiling windows. "Enjoy your meal while watching the antelope," and recharge before continuing your exploration of the zoo. If you're still looking for more, the Hsinchu City Library Zoo Branch, located on the basement floor of the Centennial Boulevard near the zoo, and the Insect Museum (offering free admission and unlimited access) are also must-visit destinations for families. The Hsinchu City Cultural Affairs Bureau has created a cozy reading space with a collection of books on animal and plant ecology, allowing children to absorb knowledge to their heart's content. The Insect Museum, converted from the old Zhonghua Broadcasting Station, displays animals such as Hercules beetle, Sulcata tortoise, snake-eating turtle, capybara, chameleon, and spectacled caiman. Animal lovers should not miss it.
