You step off the shuttle at a riverside lot and the city’s baroque skyline falls away, replaced by the low, leafy hum of Troja. A ten-minute walk skirts the Vltava and the ornate façade of Troja Palace before the Zoo’s paths open up — limestone terraces, shaded groves, and enclosures that follow the river’s bend.

Conservation
The zoo participates in international breeding and reintroduction programs; visitors help by following signage, not feeding animals, and using designated paths to reduce habitat disturbance.
