Dehiwala
Zoo is one of the finest in Asia and its sprawling
areas are home to a variety of animals and
birds. Enjoy a fun-filled day at the zoo with
your kids. Dehiwala Zoo features several species
of animals and birds in their natural habitat.
You will be amazed to see the lions, bears,
tigers, rhinos, giraffes and gorillas, all
roaming freely. This is a sight you will not
come across in too many zoos of the world.
The highlight of the zoo is the elephant circus
with extra shows on Sunday and holidays. The
huge animals perform all sorts of antics.
They stand on their heads, wiggle their backs
to music and hop on one foot and even stand
up on their hind legs. The real excitement
begins when an elephant places a foot on the
mahout's stomach and lifts him by the head
using its mouth.
