Bardhaman Zoological Park

An Important Zoological Park for Burdwan and nearby areas. Now various developments are made, such as number of different animals are increased, increased space for animals. But birds are limited. More expansion is needed.

It's a really nice place to spend quality time with family or friends. The size of the zoo is not so large but is well maintained. Don't expect to see so much here or you will be disappointed because very few animal species are available here. Overall it's a nice place to visit at least once in Barddhaman.

It’s quite good in small area….
But there is need more maintenance …….
The zoo area is not clean….
The tree section is huge variety of trees are present …..

Near Burdwan university. There is some deers and crocodile. Tiger was there before. It is good place for lovers. Entry tickets applicable.You can visit here with your children & your family to enjoy a lot & that day will be a memorable day for you all.
A place with lots of green. Don't expect to see much else you would be very disappointed. Mostly caged birds are available for seeing. Although you have a place for crocodiles but you will need some luck to spot them. Avoid summer time. Parking is available only for few cars at a fixed rate of Rs. 20.
Ramnabagan Mini Zoo in the Ramnabagan Wildlife Sanctuary spread over an area of 14.31 hectares is in Mouza Baburbag in Burdwan. This forest patch is under the control of Divisional Forest Officer, Burdwan Division who acts as Ex-Officio Director of the Zoo. The area was declared as reserved forest in 1960.

In 1978, the area had been converted to a deer park with the introduction of six spotted deer. Subsequently, the whole area has been declared a wildlife sanctuary. Later on, subsequently a mini Zoo was approved by Central Zoo Authority within the Wildlife Sanctuary area. This Zoo has been renamed as Bardhaman Zoological Park and it has been recognized as a Small Category Zoo.

Ramnabagan forest, with its tall and stately teak and sal forest having mesophytic associates like kadbels (Limonia acidissima), dumur (Ficus racemosa), jam (Syzygium cumini), etc., is a solace from the din and bustle of urban life.

The area is in the municipal limits of Burdwan town and is about 3 km from Burdwan Railway station to the west. It is about 4 km from G.T. Road (N.H.2) on Burdwan-Durgapur stretch of Durgapur Expressway. It is well connected with G.T Road by Sukumar Sen Road that meets G.T Road at Golapbag crossing. There is a good network of approach roads all along the periphery of the zoo.

Burdwan is well connected with all the major junctions of Eastern Railway. Local trains ply between Howrah and Burdwan at regular intervals. One can also avail buses which run frequently from all the major bus terminals at Kolkata.

I went for a walk in the park I like it very much there are some animals and all around is full of flowers and it is a very nice park for kids and old middle age. And if children are brought to this park They will be very happy. And there is a small museum inside the park which is very nice to see and has a lot of beautiful things

This zoo is a very beautiful place in Burdwan town. Located beside University campus. Zoo, Science centre, Krishna Shaher park and Planatorium all are in very close. In this zoo you can see Leopards, Deers, Crocodiles, Monkeys and some birds. Don't expect more animals but surely you can enjoy the grinnery and huge trees here. Visit this place with only 15 rupee entry fee. You can explore this zoo within one hour.

This destination is good for one day tour but it's need proper maintenance . Due to poor maintenance,this place seems real jungle,, if in near future, government take appropriate actions, this place have that potential to provide more amazing experiences for tourists,, and this place also have several other great destinations like Planetarium, science City and a beautiful park.

Small zoo... good gor family outing
