After two years of construction, the gigantic zoo Safari World Phnom Penh by L.Y.P Group is set to open for public this upcoming April, according to Agence Kampuchea Press (AKP).

Located on more than 80 hectare of land in Chrouy Changva district, Safari World Phnom Penh will become the largest zoo ever of its kind in Phnom Penh and in Cambodia, with the investment value of about USD 9 million.

“Previously, this zoo was located in Koh Kong Province. However, we have decided to move it to Phnom Penh because we think there are more tourists and more target customers here,” Mr Ly Yong Phat, president of LYP Group and owner of the park told Agence Kampuchea Press (AKP).

Safari World Phnom Penh will have more than 800 animals including bears, ostriches, kangaroos, giraffes, tigers, dolphins and deer. There will also be entertainment and education in the form crocodile-shows, bird-shows, orangutan-shows and a tiger-show.

According to Agence Kampuchea Press (AKP), beside this upcoming zoo, L.Y.P Group is also planning to invest about USD 30 million in building the Asean biggest water park in Cambodia named Angkor Water Park. However, the detail of the project has yet to reveal.
