Experience Mumbai Zoo

For animal enthusiasts or anyone just seeking something different in Mumbai, Jijamata Udyan (Rani Bagh) provides an exciting new world. Named for Rani Bhandari who gave birth to Shivaji, this zoo serves as both sanctuary for over 180 mammals, 500 birds and 40 reptiles as well as serving as an educational lesson about Mumbai's rich history.

From Ranichi Bagh to Jijamata Udyan:

Jijamata Udyan was established in 1861 and stands as one of India's oldest zoos. Originally, this sprawling 48-acre space was known as Ranichi Bagh - meaning Queen's Gardens - until being rechristened Veermata Jijabai Bhosale Udyan and Zoo. Witnessing generations of Mumbai history unfold, this landmark zoo remains evolving today.

Jijamata Udyan Zoo offers more than animal exhibits - while exploring, be sure to stop and marvel at the vibrant aviary, home to vibrant and noisy birds of many hues and species. Also be sure not to miss its impressive botanical garden, home to nearly 3,000 tree species including many rare and valuable varieties.

Encounters with the Wild

Jijamata Udyan Zoo's latest addition is its delightful penguin enclosure. Now home to eight playful and friendly penguins, visitors will delight in their charming antics and playful behaviour; making this attraction a must-see!

As you stroll through the zoo, you will encounter an abundance of animals housed in separate enclosures - from majestic lions to mischievous monkeys, graceful elephants to ancient crocodiles - offering an enjoyable and captivating experience for visitors of all ages and backgrounds.
