Amid the pandemic, the City of Manila has been constantly improving its infrastructure, including its properties for leisure and entertainment. Though some have said that the timing may not be the most appropriate, considering that the pandemic has limited the access to sites where people may converge, the new Manila Zoo is a welcome change.
What’s also commendable is that the new Manila Zoo, which is currently charging no entrance fee, was recently opened by Manila Mayor Francisco “Isko Moreno” Domagoso also as a vaccination site, thus serving a dual purpose. Citizens can roam the five-hectare zoo with such ease and, at the same time, find it convenient to be vaccinated since the vaccines are already available onsite.
The new Manila Zoo, thankfully, has addressed these past errors, with the present facility having its own sewage treatment plant. This is in accordance with the plan of Domagoso, who in the mid-2020 had touted that the new Manila Zoo will be the “best in Asia.” As of the moment, the entire zoo complex is not yet open to the public, but there are enough features to keep the entire family entertained. They can see numerous animals on display, plus butterflies and kois.
