As a Google guide, I recently visited Riyadh Zoo and was pleasantly surprised by the variety of animals and attractions on offer. The zoo is well-maintained and has a good selection of wildlife from around the world, including lions, tigers and elephants.The enclosures are spacious and appear to be designed with the animals' welfare in mind.

In addition to the animal exhibits, the zoo has several play areas for children, as well as food and drink outlets. I particularly enjoyed the bird exhibit, which had a wide range of exotic birds and provided a unique opportunity to get up close to them.

Overall, I would highly recommend a visit to Riyadh Zoo, whether you are a local resident or a tourist. The entrance fee is affordable, and there is plenty to see and do for visitors of all ages. The only downside is that the zoo can get quite crowded, so it's best to arrive early in the day to avoid the crowds.

Well maintained zoo I have ever seen. Best place for children. Price is also reasonable, approx SAR 5 for each child with age of above 3 years, and SAR 11 per adult.
More than 150 species are accommodated and need approx 1.5 hours to 2 for complete round with small pauses.
Highly recommended for children ✌️
