Prague is full of tourists, especially during summertime, and so we have launched our traditional summer campaign this year. The slogans are bilingual and this year we highlight the English ones above those in Czech.

Karlo, the unique Giant Salamander, one of the largest of its kind, is a wonderful attraction, and not only for foreign visitors.

Betting on the bizarre and beautiful animals was worth the wager. By mid July more than 100,000 visitors had walked through the gates of the Zoo this month and foreign languages could be heard all around.

In the summer campaign we bet not on superficially appealing and generally popular species, but on the exotic, largest amphibians of the world - the Giant Salamanders.

The traditional summer campaign continues with the hit of the season, the opening of the Giant Salamander Pavilion. Photo Petr Hamerník, Prague Zoo
