#batamtrip A lot of small animals available to observe and take pictures. Could get a small basket of food after paying entrance fee. On top of that, if want to feed grasses and other food, have to pay more. There is a photographer helping to take pictures and can choose to print out with Batam Zoo Paradise logo for IDR50,000 per picture. Can request to download digital pictures. Overall, ticket fare is reasonable. Suggest to come early as the weather at noon onwards are hot.

#CanadaFlightEvent Here, you can ride a horse yourself. I think that kind of experience is really great. I didn't ride because I thought the horse would have a hard time. The pony (or foal) is so cute. A fully grown horse is even more beautiful and magnificent with its fancy decorations. The color of the horse is also different~ #BatamZoo

#CanadaFlightEvent Actually, when I was young, I couldn't tell the difference between goats and sheep. They felt similar. When I saw them in person, I thought sheep were cuter. They have gentle personalities. Goats have horns and they look scary. In fact, they tied up goats at the zoo. #BatamZoo

#CanadaFlightEvent I saw an ostrich for the first time here. I never knew ostriches were this big. Baby ostriches are cute, but they are really scary when they grow up. They are bigger than people and have bad tempers, so they are aggressive. Be careful not to get your hat, cell phone, or glasses stolen when you get close. #BatamZoo

#CanadaFlightEvent The interior here is really well done. As you can see in the picture, there are trees on the green grass, and the fence is also made of wood, so it is not only eco-friendly, but also goes well with the animals. Doesn't the sight of rabbits huddled together look like a scene from a fairy tale? #BatamZoo

#CanadaFlightEvent Here, you can see turtles crawling. They crawl slowly but cutely. I was a little surprised because the turtles were smaller than I thought. I've only seen turtles that live long and are big. The turtles here seem to be young. The rodents here are really cute, so I want to take them home and raise them. #BatamZoo

#CanadaFlightEvent Am I the only one who found out that rabbits are this cute? The rabbits here are really cute, small, and gentle. The green grass, cute trees, and custom rabbit sculptures are in harmony, giving it a feeling like a small fairy tale! The turtle is with a small lake(?) #BatamZoo

#CanadaFlightEvent Here are similar animals like chickens, ducks, and geese. There seem to be other animals in the chicken coop as well as chicks. I think there are pheasants too. The birds come in various colors like black, gray, etc. It's amazing. The goose was bigger than I thought, which surprised me. The shape of its beak was also amazing. #BatamZoo

#CanadaFlightEvent I saw chickens and chicks, which are very familiar animals. The chickens are very strong, as they look. The chicks are very cute. Unfortunately, I didn't find any chicken eggs. I hope to see them next time I go. I know the chicks are yellow, but here they are white, which is unusual. #BatamZoo

#CanadaFlightEvent I saw an animal for the first time in my life while visiting Batam Zoo. Have you ever seen this animal? I'm not sure if it's a chicken or a pheasant. Maybe it's neither. Batam Zoo has so many different and rare animals that it's fun to see! I want to go again next time. #BatamZoo

#CanadaFlightEvent There are lizards at Batam Zoo. They are lizards of various colors~ Actually, I don't like lizards. They are kind of creepy. But seeing all these different animals is an incredibly special experience~ #BatamZoo

#CanadaFlightEvent There are various birds in the cage. When I saw them, they seemed to be a family, but I can't tell. I can't ask the birds. But they have similar shapes and colors~ Isn't it really cute? The cage is quite large and there are various models, so the birds won't be bored~ #BatamZoo

#CanadaFlightEvent As you can see from the picture, there really are few birds, right? But I made a mistake and only took pictures of the moments when there were few birds. Unlike the picture, there are many kinds of birds and many birds. However, the cuteness shown in the picture is still there! There are cute birds of various colors! #BatamZoo

#CanadaFlightEvent Have you ever fed animals? I never fed animals, but now I do. Because I experienced feeding at Batam Zoo! As you can see in the picture, I was able to feed the beautiful birds myself. Try an experience you wouldn't normally have at Batam Zoo. #BatamZoo

#CanadaFlightEvent There are various animals at Batam Zoo. Of course, there are small animals too. There are small rat-like animals (probably rodents) as shown above, and birds. For me who likes these cute and small animals, Batam Zoo was a really fun place~~ It's really fun. #BatamZoo

#CanadaFlightEvent There are actually many experiences you can have at Batam Zoo. In particular, the animals are not afraid of people and come to you. Can you see the baby deer approaching the person in the photo? At Batam Zoo, many baby animals are also friendly to people. #BatamZoo

#CanadaFlightEvent Did you know that there is a zoo in Batam, Indonesia? If you like animals, you should definitely go there. I don't remember the price, but I remember it being quite cheap. There are cute sheep and horses! Highly recommended for couples or family tours. #BatamZoo #BatamTravel #IndonesiaZoo

There are lots of animals for visitors to touch on and definitely not for faint-hearted! Son and husband enjoy this place as there is not much crowd and once paid up the entrance fee they will give you some feed for the animals as well! Fun and must go place for families ♡#travel #familytravel
