A Day at Zoo Negara Malaysia

During my best friend visits to KL last week, we went to Zoo Negara just for fun as he thought he could play with his Canon 40D. Tagging along with him, I brought my gear 500D and we went hunting !! After paying RM20 ticket, we actually asked for maps. The shockingly truth is you have to pay for it ! It’s RM2, of course I reluctant to pay. Note that you also have to pay for other things like a ride on the bus train which rounds the Zoo. So the RM20 is just for entrance fee, not inclusive of anything inside. Upon entering, we chose to go left first.

Wai Lian and I feel that it’s a good experience to the Zoo Negara, of course it’s still lack of many animals but for RM20, it’s worth a day visit. Our only regret is that we don’t have a telelens, then we can take National Geographic alike photos, lol. 

Zoo Negara is open daily from 9AM-5PM, and needless to say, all the information as below.
