Night Safari

Night Safari revolutionized the zoo experience when it opened in 1994 as the world's first nocturnal wildlife park, allowing visitors to observe over 2,500 animals from 130 species in their natural nighttime habitat. This groundbreaking 35-hectare park uses innovative lighting techniques that replicate moonlight, enabling nocturnal animals to remain active while allowing visitors to observe their natural behaviors without disturbing their routines. The park is divided into eight geographical zones representing regions from the Himalayan Foothills to the African Savannah, each carefully designed to recreate authentic habitats where animals can roam freely in large, naturalistic enclosures.

The experience begins with an optional tram ride that covers four different trails - Leopard Trail, Fishing Cat Trail, East Lodge Trail, and Wallaby Trail - each offering unique encounters with different nocturnal species including elephants, lions, leopards, hyenas, and many others that are rarely seen active during traditional daytime zoo visits. For more adventurous visitors, walking trails provide intimate encounters with smaller nocturnal creatures and offer different perspectives of the larger animals. The park also features engaging shows like the "Creatures of the Night" show, which showcases the natural abilities of nocturnal animals through educational entertainment. 

The Night Safari's commitment to conservation and education extends beyond entertainment, with numerous breeding programs for endangered species and research facilities that contribute to global wildlife conservation efforts. This unique concept has inspired similar attractions worldwide and remains an unparalleled experience that demonstrates Singapore's innovation in wildlife presentation and conservation.
