The Chhatbir Zoo is also known by its original name, Mahendra Chaudhary Zoological Park. This is located a few kilometers away from Chandigarh on one side and Patiala on the other. The Chattbir Zoo spreads over a vast area.
It is a surprising thing how a stretch of mere scrubland has been transformed into such an amazing place filled with beautiful animals. This measure has certainly helped in enhancing the ecological balance of the area. The animals are kept in an open enclosure so that they can roam freely and do not feel trapped. The most attractive animal in Chhatbir Zoo is the Royal Bengal Tiger and the visitors can even take a very close look of this giant animal as they travel in a caged car. The Chhatbir Zoo Lion Safari is an exciting thing to do here.
The gems of this Chattbir Zoo include the variety of wild animals, beautiful reptiles and so many colorful birds. The animals stay in a large moat and surrounded by forest like environment that gives them a homely feel.
The Chhatbir Zoo, Chandigarh is also an ideal picnic spot and also the perfect place for a children’s day out. The kids can run around free and also learn about different animals at the same time here.

Chhatbir Zoo Reviews & Ratings
-
It's a pretty the condition the zoo is in. The place truly seems like it was built a century ago and the animals are living in harsh Condition with little or no natural conditions or habitats provided to them. The lion safari had only 4 lions out of which 2 were in cages. The recreational and food facility are negligible with only a few substandard snacks available and a lot of the cages are empty. When I asked the zoo workers they all complained as to how the govt. Is to be blamed for all and also mention that animals were being sold to zoos over the world. What a shame.
