Owned by the Royal Zoological Society of Scotland, Edinburgh Zoo sprawls across a hillside and is home to over 1,500 animals, including Sumatran tigers, lions, pygmy hippopotamuses, and giant anteaters. The zoo’s star attractions are its penguins, known for their daily strolls outside their enclosure, and the UK’s only giant pandas, Tian Tian and Yang Guang. Visitors can explore the diverse habitats and observe these fascinating creatures up close, making it a memorable experience for all ages.
