A plan to redesign the Sai Gon Zoo and Botanical Gardens by German
architect Peter Rasbach has been approved by the zoo management and will
next be submitted to the HCM City Department of Urban Planning and
Architecture.
Visitors to the Sai Gon Zoo and Botanical Gardens
will see with admiration a newly restored artistic work near the Hung
Kings Temple – a bronze elephant statue gifted by King Prajadhipok (Rama
VII of Siam) in 1934 as a mark of friendship.
