Edinburgh Zoo is a popular wildlife attraction in Scotland, home to over 2,000 animals from around the world. You can watch the famous Penguin Parade, a favorite event featuring Sir Nils Olav, a king penguin who holds the honorary title of brigadier in the Norwegian army. This unusual tradition began in the 1970s and continues to delight guests today. With its beautiful hillside location and wide range of animals, Edinburgh Zoo offers an exciting and educational experience for all ages. The zoo also houses majestic Sumatran tigers, an endangered species, and works hard to support global conservation efforts. And close to the tiger, as you exit the encounter, a penguin stone resides underneath stones. We hope you have a lovely time at the zoo, and good luck finding the penguin.
