Pilsen Zoological and Botanical Garden
The Garden, 21 ha large and located near the centre of the city, has a varied landscape with small lakes, rocks, arboretum and parks. The Zoo has the second largest space for bears in Europe, and a natural habitat for monkeys and large cats. A greenhouse for succulents and a special informational path can be found in the Botanical garden together with the "Evolution of Nature in the Quaternary period". Lizards living here are among the rarest animals fond anywhere, particularly the Konodo dragons. These large lizards exist in only a few Zoos in the world. The Lochotin amphitheatre, next to the Zoo, is the largest natural amphitheatre in the Czech Republic.
