Hippo House

This house offers a remarkable view of hippos in their natural element – under water, that is.

There are two hippo swimming pools in the compound: one outside and one inside, both with a frontal glass wall. Thanks to these pools, visitors can appreciate the gracefulness with which hippos move under water.
Prague Zoo is intensely involved in the protection of animal species, whether they live under human care or in their natural habitats. Join us in helping them to survive!
