Name: Taronga Zoo Sydney
Address: Bradleys Head Road, Mosman NSW, Sydney, NSW, AU

SYDNEY, NSW

Set on the harbour foreshore at Mosman, Taronga has what may be the finest view of any zoo in the world - the giraffes graze with the Opera House and the city skyline behind them. Reached by ferry across the water, it climbs a steep hillside through habitats for Australian and exotic animals, from the Great Southern Oceans seal displays to the Sumatran tigers and the walk-through wallaby and koala areas. A cable car and the sloping paths make a day of it, and the twilight concerts on the lawn in summer are a Sydney institution. The harbour setting alone is worth the crossing.
