Zoo Negara · National Zoo of Malaysia
Malaysia's national zoo in Hulu Kelang, Ampang, run by the Malaysian Zoological Society, with open-concept exhibits and a giant panda enclosure.
Zoo Negara Malaysia is an open-concept zoo in Hulu Kelang, Ampang, in Selangor, which the operator places about 5 km from Kuala Lumpur city centre. It is managed by the Malaysian Zoological Society and, according to the operator, was established in 1963 and covers about 50 acres. The operator's own pages give different animal counts (over 5,000 animals on the home page; over 4,000 animals from 318 species in its footer), so treat any figure as approximate. Giant pandas are among the animals the operator features. The operator describes a zoo map with wheelchair-friendly routes, rest areas and accessible restrooms, and sells tickets online or at the entrance.
The operator's address is Zoo Negara Malaysia, Hulu Kelang, 68000 Ampang, Selangor. By public transport the operator suggests the LRT Kelana Jaya Line to Wangsa Maju, then Rapid KL bus 253 or 220 or a short e-hailing ride to the main entrance.
