Zoolandia, the Zoological and Botanical Park of Brazzaville, is a premier wildlife and nature destination located within the Patte d'Oie forest reserve. Founded in 1952 by veterinarian Dr. R. Rousselot, this park has evolved into a comprehensive showcase of Congolese fauna and flora, with its botanical function officially established in 2018. The park welcomes over 250 visitors daily and has become a cornerstone attraction for nature enthusiasts, families, and educational groups. The facility houses an impressive collection of animals including Nile crocodiles, striped-flanked jackals, sitatungas, yellow-billed kites, Seba pythons, and blue peafowl, each housed in dedicated enclosures. Beyond traditional animal viewing, Zoolandia offers a diverse range of attractions designed to engage visitors of all ages, including zip-lining, water slides, paintball activities, and bicycle rentals. The park emphasizes environmental education and conservation, inviting guests to reconnect with nature while learning about the essential role biodiversity plays in planetary balance. The on-site Food Corner restaurant provides dining options throughout the visit. With organized visitor preparation resources, detailed park maps, and accessible ticketing options including online booking and mobile money payments, Zoolandia caters to both walk-in visitors and advance planners seeking an immersive natural experience.
