Take a night-time stroll at Dusit Zoo
Dusit Zoo is to open at night, its director said yesterday. Known locally as Khao Din, the zoo, which is Thailand's oldest, plans to stay open until 9pm every day instead of 6pm previously. It will also change its morning opening time from 8am to 10am.
"The night opening will be offered soon," said director Visit Vichasilp. The extended hours were scheduled to be start this Sunday, but due to the current political situation the plan was temporarily postponed, he said. Under the banner, "Take a Sunset Walk in Khao Din", the night-time opening will allow people to enjoy the zoo's attractions at sunset, Visit said. As well as being able to savour the zoo's peaceful atmosphere, visitors will be able to enjoy the sight of the Parliament building at sunset. Night visitors will tour the zoo in trailers accompanied by a guide. The animal cages will be lit with spotlights. The cost of a night visit will be Bt100 for adults and Bt50 for children, as opposed to Bt30 and Bt5, respectively, during the day.
