Meet the animals at Artis Royal Zoo
Artis Royal Zoo in Amsterdam first opened its gates in 1838 making it the oldest zoo in the Netherlands.
It sprawls across more than 35 acres and has 900 different species of animals many of which are housed in ornate and spacious compounds that were designed in the 19th century.
There is also an aquarium section that was built in 1882 that features diverse species like sharks, eel, and colorful tropical fish.
Make sure to look out for the tray bikes that circle the zoo selling traditional Dutch pancakes called bitterballen.
