MPV Holiday
Lembang Park & Zoo
A relaxed highland wildlife stop for families north of Bandung.
Lembang, North Bandung
Lembang Park & Zoo at a glance
Lembang Park & Zoo is a family-oriented animal park in the cool hills of Lembang, north of Bandung. It combines animal encounters, landscaped paths and child-friendly facilities.
It is an easy choice for travellers who want a gentler wildlife visit than a full-day safari: arrive early, walk at an unhurried pace and check feeding-session times at the gate.
Allow around three to five hours for the zoo, plus the uphill drive from central Bandung. A private car makes it easy to combine it with another Lembang stop. Many travellers visit with an MPV Holiday private car rental or as part of a flexible Bandung tour package.
