For everyone who loves animals I strongly recommend Zoo Granby. It has a large variety of animals and activities that please everyones tastes.

This Year the Amazoo has its 10th anniversary. A New element has been added to the water park: Hurakan. Basing on a legend created long time ago Hurakan is the god of the wind, storms and fire.
