In addition to the animals, there are exciting playgrounds for the little ones and cozy cafés and beer gardens for the big ones. A visit to the zoo is particularly exciting in spring and autumn, because then there are bound to be small, cute baby animals somewhere. At the latest when you see the cute four-legged friend, your heart will melt away – no matter how old you are.

Above all, girls love the magical kingdom of elves and fairies. Unicorns can be groomed in front of a rainbow and golden crystals can be searched for in magic shells.
Since there is water in many themed worlds such as Westernstatt or the pirate ship, the Playmobil Fun Park near Nuremberg is also suitable for hot temperatures.
