Chennai Zoo Snake Park

I like zoos, so I went there. It's a vast area with a luxurious layout. Although it's a zoo, there are benches and other facilities in various places, giving it a park-like atmosphere. However, there are only a few types of animals kept. Unfortunately, I was there with a group of kindergarten, elementary school, and junior high school students, so the zoo was packed with them and I couldn't relax at all. If it hadn't been for the school event, my impression might have been a little different. There were fewer people at the snake park. There were also crocodiles. The biggest one was apparently about 600 kg and was impressive. The photo shows the chicken biryani and mint mojito I had at the zoo cafe next door.
