Faunia

Faunia is a captivating wildlife and nature park that has been enchanting visitors since its opening in 2001 as Madrid's Parque Biológico de Madrid. Spanning 14 hectares across the Spanish capital, this innovative zoo reimagines the traditional animal experience by recreating authentic ecosystems rather than confining creatures to conventional enclosures. The park houses over 4,000 animals representing more than 500 species, alongside 15,000 plants of 1,000 varieties, making it one of Europe's largest zoos. What truly sets Faunia apart is its immersive approach—visitors journey through four distinct ecosystem zones including the Amazon Jungle, African Savannah, Polar Regions, and Mediterranean Forest, each meticulously designed with appropriate habitats, temperature, and humidity conditions. Beyond observation, Faunia offers interactive adventures that create lasting memories. Encounter playful sea lions, majestic penguins, and gentle manatees up close. Watch captivating dolphin shows and bird of prey demonstrations that blend entertainment with conservation education. The park's commitment to wildlife education and environmental awareness transforms a simple visit into an inspiring journey through our planet's incredible biodiversity.
