Need everyones opinion here! Will be going to Bangkok, Pattaya, Chiang Mai and Phuket. Any suggestions on which is the best zoo to visit and why.
All suggestions appreciated.

have a zoo? I do not remember one. Bangkok was the "must see" I never saw, so what can I say?

There are 2 Zoos located in Bangkok, Khao-Din and Safari World. Khao-Din is treaditional zoo. Animail was caged. You can walk around the zoo and see animals in cage.

For Safari world, This is open zoo. You can drive or take a bus and see animals. For more information visit to Safari World - The World of Happiness (Bangkok - Thailand)

Cheingmai has famous zoo also. People go to Cheingmai zoo to see Panda, Chwong-Chwong and Lhin-Hui.

The Dusit Zoo in Bangkok is old, but nice. You can spend an afternoon walking around. The food court is good too.

The zoo in Chaing Mai is not really a walking around zoo. It's big draw are the Pandas. You basically take a tuk tuk to see them, then leave. They are cute.

We have never bothered going to Phuket Zoo due to the bad reports we have read about it. Of course their website is nice but its very rare to hear anyone say anything nice about the place.

nobody suggested the unique zoos in the north along the myanmar border where they have mammals of different tribes, some made to wear gold rings and elongate their necks. hey, how can you pass up an photo opportunity like that. althought they do let them roam free at times, but never really free, too much money to be made.
