Chester Zoo is one of the finest zoos in Europe, and Britain’s largest zoo outside London, Chester Zoo is a fantastic destination for families.  The 110 landscaped acres that make up the park each have plenty to discover.   Chester Zoo is the UK’s number one zoo, with over 7000 animals and 400 different species, including some of the most endangered species on the planet. With more than one million visitors every year, the Zoo is an all-year round favourite attraction.

Chester Zoo is working with consultants and the Northwest Regional Development Agency on its embryonic masterplan for the development and expansion called 'Natural Vision', with the aspiration of becoming a world-class visitor attraction and a global centre for conservation sustainability.
