About Bannerghatta Biological Park
and Zoo:
Bannerghatta National Park is a popular
tourist destination and around 22km from Bengaluru. In 2002 portion of the park
become Bannerghatta Biological Park. Bannerghatta National Park includes a
Butterfly Park, a Safari Park, a Zoo, a Snake House, and a Pet Corner.
Bannerghatta
National Park is a 104 square kilometer zoological park located around 30
minutes South of Bangalore. To get there, take the Nice Road from Hosur (Rs 30
toll) and Exit at Bannerghatta Road (it is the next exit and it comes at around
the 9KM mark) and drive around 20 minutes on that road to get to the entrance.
There is also excellent public transportation to the place (BMTC buses
365, 366, 368, and Big-10). The park is open 9AM to 5PM and closed Tuesdays.The
main activities available at the park are the safari, the zoo, and the
butterfly park.
The zoo is also very well organized and covers an area of 12
hectares at the moment, although there are expansion plans for another 28
hectares. It hosts over 1400 animals belonging to over 70 species. The complex
also has a museum, auditorium, and an animal hospital (no access for visitors)
inside the premises. Prominent animals on display include cayman
crocodiles, panthers, hog deer, a good variety of exotic birds, etc. They also
occasionally have feeding time, demonstrations, and such - we got to pet a baby
elephant! Also, the albino peacock was a first for us.Cheetah |

Not everything was perfect at the park
when we visited: Parking was not that well organized, ticketing areas were
chaotic, restroom facility was well below par, and there were no restaurant
options to speak of (Hotel Vanashree Mayura is next to the entrance but did not
look appealing).

Bannerghatta Butterfly Park
After completing the safari trip we visited the Zoo inside Bannerghatta National Park. The zoo was crowded. Inside the zoo there were several battery operated vehicles which one could hire for round trip of the zoo. We walked around the zoo and were excited to see different animals, species etc. The main attraction was however the Butterfly Park. Flying colors in the true sense!!
Other Attractions at Bannerghatta National Park and Zoo
Wildlife film show, Museum, 3D show, boating etc.All in all Bannerghatta National Park is an amazing place with all facilities right from parking to hotels, resorts, restaurants and restrooms. All these are within the park itself.
