What tickets to zoos in Cordoba can I buy?

· Centro de Conservación de Especies Zoo Córdoba: In the southern part of the city, in the neighbourhood of Parque Cruz Conde, you will find this unique zoo in the Poniente Sur district. This impressive facility is home to several species from all over the world.

This Zoo allows you to enter individually or in groups at very affordable prices for everyone. The opening hours are long so you have enough time to stroll through the zoo quietly and without haste. Its work encompasses all the conservation and research of the species in captivity.

And for a great family day out, you can have lunch at the zoo, so you don't have to worry about anything but having a great day out.

Animal conservation is vital, as an animal ceases to be an animal the moment it does not behave like its own kind. The staff does an exceptional job in this respect, enriching the environment and encouraging the animals to develop the same way as their relatives in the wild, stimulating their senses and social skills.

· Sierra Morena Zoo: This facility is on the outskirts of the province, specifically in the Sierra de Hornachuelos. So not only does it offer the chance to visit native animals both in captivity and in the wild, but you can also visit the geological classroom where you can learn all about fossils and animals in the wild.

This zoo, located in the region of the Middle Guadalquivir Valley, is ideal for getting to know the animals in a unique natural environment with magnificent landscapes and views. At Hornachuelos Zoo, you will be able to walk along cliffs where you will see animals in semi-freedom.

You will also have the opportunity to see marine fossils millions of years old in one of the most important natural parks of the peninsula, the Natural Park of Sierra Morena.
