On September 1st, the entrance fee for all children under 15 is one crown. For this symbolic admission fee, schoolchildren will spend the first day of September among animals instead of at their school desks. On the last Friday of the summer holidays, they will also enjoy a completely different timetable - commented feedings and meetings with nearly two dozen species throughout the zoo’s grounds. Summer opening hours, when the zoo gates close at 7 p.m., will be in effect until Sunday.

This Friday, September 1st, all children under 15 will be able to visit Prague Zoo for a symbolic price of one crown. Instead of a school timetable, they can follow the times of the commented feeding sessions - for example, for the ring-tailed lemurs, will start at 14.30.
