Use this area as a planning base for Kankaria Lakefront; Kamla Nehru
Zoological Garden. Choose one main visit and check its current admission,
opening and any booking requirements before travelling.

GETTING AROUND
Use the exact address and directions on the selected venue page. Places
grouped in one area do not necessarily share an entrance, ticket or walkable
connection.

IF IT RAINS
Choose the selected venue’s indoor or outdoor format to suit the weather.
Outdoor routes and gate access still need a same-day check.
