Prague Zoo is marking a special anniversary: 20 years since the opening of the “Vodní svět” (Water World) and the Monkey Islands. On Saturday, visitors are invited to enjoy a full day of animal encounters and guided feedings.
On Saturday 16 August, the zoo will host a special celebration. Twenty years after the opening of the “Vodní svět” and Monkey Islands, guests can enjoy a diverse programme featuring guided feedings and close-up encounters with the animals.
Opened in 2005, the complex combines water features with grassy islands, linked by traditional paths and several wooden walkways. Situated in the lower half of the zoo, the area is home both to animals that live in or near water and to species for which the water moats act as natural barriers. As a result, not only water-loving animals such as tapirs, swamp antelopes, flamingos and pelicans have settled here, but also various primates that have made the islands behind the moats their home.
Programme – Saturday 16 August 2025:
- 10:00: Encounter with the ring-tailed lemurs
- 10:30: Feeding of the Chilean and Cuban flamingos
- 11:00: Encounter with the gibbons
- 13:00: Encounter with the macaques
- 14:00: Feeding of the sitatungas
- 14:30: Feeding of the pink flamingos
- 15:00: Encounter in the Čambal Pavilion
- 16:00: Encounter with the chimpanzees
Prague Zoo invites young and old alike to explore the diversity of Water World and the Monkey Islands and join in celebrating this special anniversary.
