Don't miss out one of Manila's favorite attractions

The Manila Zoo occupies 14 acres of land and houses more than 800 animals, reptiles and birds. Special mention must be made of the Wildlife Rescue Center, which takes in sick and abandoned animals. Two large colonies for the aves and enormous water bodies that are homes to crocodiles and the Asian elephant, Mali, also get top billings. The botanical garden is also a delight, with exhibits of indigenous flora.
