Bristol Zoological Society’s two sites – Bristol Zoo Gardens and Wild Place Project – are perfect fresh-air destinations for this coming half-term after both winning recent awards.
Wild Place Project was recently named Bristol, Bath & Somerset Tourism Awards’ ‘Visitor Attraction of the Year’, and last year Bristol Zoo Gardens was a winner of Visit England’s ‘Best Told Story’.
Both offer acres of outdoor space and the chance to get close to animals from all over the globe, including many endangered species.
Visitors to Bristol Zoo can see the youngest gorilla, Juni, who was born in December. He lives on Gorilla Island with his mum, Touni, and dad, Jock, together with the rest of the troop of western lowland gorillas.
