Sriayuthaya Lion Park
A big, clean zoo with cheap feeding stations, brilliant with kids, but the animal shows sit badly with some.

Why go, and how to do it well
If your kids have hit their limit on ruined temples and brick chedis, this is the pressure valve. It's a proper zoo out at Tha Ruea, northeast of Ayutthaya's historical core, with lions, tigers, giraffes, zebras, hyenas, crocodiles, orangutans and a long list of primates. The route is well planned, so you walk a loop rather than doubling back, and reviewers keep coming back to how clean the enclosures are. Feeding points cost 50 baht a basket and they're dotted everywhere, which is where the fun is for small children and where your budget quietly disappears.
Two honest caveats. The whole place leans commercial and photo-driven, with plenty of the highlights sitting behind extra paid activities. And the shows divide people. Watching a lion pushed to roll on a barrel has upset enough visitors that I'd say skip them and spend the time at the giraffes instead. If that sort of thing bothers you, it will bother you here.

Reviews from Google
A great place and excellent value for families with young kids, though visitors of all ages are welcome. Ticket prices are very reasonable. There is plenty of open parking space, food is affordably priced, and animal feed is very cheap (50 THB per basket). Compared to Safari World, it’s much less crowded, which made the experience more enjoyable. My kids especially loved feeding and petting the animals. The staff are friendly, and all areas are very clean. Overall, a fun and relaxing place for a family outing.
Very recommended to visit here, entrance fee is so cheap, many activities, many feeding point to animals (50 THB/point). All staff is so friendly and nice. Giraffe, tiger, crocodile and many kinds primate is so much.
Great selection of animals and it’s great fun to feed them. The zoo is easy to walk around and every exhibit is amazingly clean. I loved seeing the baby orangutang. However, the shows are best described as animal cruelty. Making a lion roll on a barrel is not entertaining, it’s stupid and thoughtless. This zoo could be amazing if they make the shows educational and teach people the importance of conservation.
