One word - beautiful ❤️. It opens from 9am and the ticket cost is minimal i.e 32 rupees per adult. If you are having camera then 80 rupees for camera. Cafeteria is closed due to corona.Dont visit the park in noon because during this time most of the animals are in their den or hiding in the shades. Best time is in the morning or in the evening. I like different birds collection there. And the one which is most adorable is RAJHANS.

Machia Biological Park. It is near Kaylana Lack. There are many types of animals and birds here. Which are kept very well. And it gets to see many things related to science. This is a very nice place.

Beautiful place with natural vegetation and many types of wildlife including tiger 🐅, Lion 🦁, bear🐻 and different kind of birds, Rajhans is very beautiful.Roads are very good and clean, lots of place to sit and rest, there are water coolers so you can fill your bottles, ticket is minimum (32Rs. Only), not far from Jodhpur Junction. I gave 120 Rs. For a auto-rickshaw from junction.

Nice park to go with family and kids. Prefer morning time to visit here as most of the animals are inside the small cave which is in the cage, during afternoon.. difficult to click pictures if they are on the other end of the cage, as cages are quiet big.

This is one of the few well maintained zoo in the Jodhpur. It is located outside the main city. The zoo is user friendly, which means it has provisions for the easy access of persons with disabilities. Infrastructure is good. Most of the time you will find that, school children visiting this place. If you are new to this zoo, please carry water bottles along with you. Although zoo has a restaurant and refreshment center in its premise, but it is quite costly. If you are traveling after 11 AM, you wont be able to get a proper view of some of the animals like Lion, Tiger bear etc. This is because as the temperature increases, most of the above mentioned animals go deep into their caves. So it is prudent to plan your visit judiciously. Try in the early morning or in the late afternoon. The zoo has also the facility of battery operated car, and it is affordable. The whole area of the zoo is not located in the plane area, rather somewhere you have to go uphill and in others downside.Lastly the park is good place to enjoy your weekend along with your families and loved ones.Enjoy your stay.

Machia Biological Park is located on the outskirts of Jodhpur, near the Kaylana Lake.It is maintained by the forest department.Entry fee of 30 per Indian tourist.Now, electric ride tours run for 210 for a group of 5, or 30 per head. It is best to do the tour via this, as on foot, the location of cages are very far away.There are variety of animals, and there is a bird and reptile section separately.Adequate paid parking is available if you are planning to take your own vehicle.

Review №21

As it is named a biological park but when you visit you will end up with feeling like a visit our ordinary park with a few interesting things... Because almost 50% flora and fauna are missing.. Only a few common animals are there which you can find in any ordinary zoo... Plants scientific name and common names are almost missing and in case you see a name then the plant will be missing... So overall this place is good for a casual visit but if you are going for an educational visit..I will suggest dont go

The cleanliness of the whole area is amazing. Could see guards helping the cleaning staff at multiple points. Also, the cages are well maintained, safe for visitors and clean. Animals looked well-fed. Enjoyed watching jackals play with each other and Tiger eating its lunch inside the cage. Almost all the animals seemed camera friendly.This visit was definitely worth the money! (which was so affordable)

Waters presence definitely makes a place beautiful and so does kaylana lake. Watch the sunset or boat around, you will like this place for sure. However issues with cleanliness does bar your view as litter (blame visitors) is yet to be picked up.

It was amazing to see snake, tiger, leopard, wild cats, parrots etc. live. Biological park is well designed and track is well maintained. To see nature and feel the peace in wildness one must see the park. Biological park having washroom facility but it is not maintained. It is having a small restaurant before exit as well.

30 ₹ tickets.A normal zoo. Not all the animals written in boards were present. But most of them were present. You need to travel a lot to look around for animals, because a lot of space has been given to a particular animal. Over all a good place.

Indias largest zoo. Here you can see Tiger, Jaguar, Asian Tiger, Panther, भालू, anagonda and lots of other creatures. This is the the best zoo have ever seen before by me. You can also see here all type of grass and weeds dry plants in showcase. ये चिड़ियाघर 78 करोड़ साल पहले पृथ्वी में से फूटे ज्वालामुखी से निकले लावा से बने हुए पहाड़ के बीच में बना हुआ है /

Its a really good place to visit. Adequately designed for animals as well as the visitors. Provisions of shades and canteen facility are nice facilities there.

The Jodhpur Machiya Safari Parklies on the way to Jaisalmer. It isabout 1km from Kaylana Lake. It is amust see place for those interestedin wildlife. The main fauna of theMachiya Safari Park of Jodhpur,Rajasthan includes, deer, desert fox,monitor lizard, blue bulls rabbits,wild cats, mongoose, monkeys, etc.There is also an exclusive birdwatching point from where you cansee a large number of birds. Thus,serving as a good place for birdwatchers too. The safari park alsohas a fort inside its complex. Thefort also gives a nice view of thesunset. It also has a small museum inside the park where one can see fossils and much more. And to curb the hunger there is small canteen which provides with quick snacks and beverages. Park is built over a large span. Animals are maintained in huge spacious cage. To take a round one can also hire a electric vehicle available at the entry by paying an economic charge. Machiya Safari Park is aninteresting place to visit with kids. You must visit if you have spare time on visit to jodhpur.

A good zoo in Jodhpur. Cart is available at very nominal rate to take you inside the Zoo. Cart stops at all points where animal habitation is there. There is a good canteen inside the zoo offering all types of cuisines and a reasonable price. Parking is available inside the park. Not far from city.

You will get to see the animals only if you are lucky enough. Its a small zoo and will take under 1 hour to completely explore it. The lake in background adds to its beauty but the lake is not accessible.

🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏Minimal animals to see, half the enclosures are empty and public is busy clicking selfies of themselves. All nooks and crannies full of couples trying for privacy. Place is clean and tickets are very reasonable. However the electric cart roundabout is a rip off. Only 20mins per round, the driver is impatient enough to honk if you spend too much time at an enclosure. Museum is decent with good info. Havent tried the cafe.

Good place for animal lovers. It is on the way towards Kalayana Lake. Its a small zoo type park where you can find almost every animal.Animals are provided enough space and are kept far away from tourist so that tourist cant disturb them.Tickets for this park is RS 30. You can hire golf cart for rent for RS 30 per person, but minimum person to travel is 6 else you have to pay for full i.e. Rs. 180.

Very huge and nicely built.The park is open from 8 am to 5:30 pm.On Sunday they close at 6:30.The directions and everything inside is very clear and visible. The animals arr provided huge spaces to roam aroundThere is appropriate distance between ourselves and animals.But one this that needs attention is that they must have guards everywhere. I saw some people pelting stones at lion so that he moves and roars. That is very disheartening.Hope they do something about it.Otherwise very nice placeMust visit in jodhpur
