Elephants' Landscape

The Copenhagen Zoo’s new elephant landscape ties together the modern elephant house, drawn by Sir Norman Foster, to the romantic gardens of Frederiksberg Garden. The landscape break down the boundary between the public park and the Zoo - visitors of the Zoo can follow the elephants' lives, with the romantic landscape of Frederiksberg Garden as a picturesque backdrop and the public will get an exotic touch to their stroll through the romantic park.
