Ragunan Zoo Provides 27 Parking Spots to Accommodate Rising Eid Holiday Visitors

Jakarta — The management of Ragunan Zoo in South Jakarta has provided 27 parking spaces to accommodate the anticipated surge in visitors during the Eid al-Fitr 1447 Hijra holiday break.

“The management has prepared substantial supporting infrastructure, including 27 additional parking plot locations within the zoo compound,” said Endah Rumiyati, Head of Ragunan Zoo Operations Unit, when contacted in Jakarta on Friday.

She stated that the available parking facilities can accommodate up to 5,500 cars and approximately 20,000 motorcycles, which is expected to enhance visitor comfort whilst pursuing the visitation target.

“The additional parking spaces are intended to support visitor comfort during the targeted visitation period,” Endah explained.

Ragunan Zoo has adopted the theme “Fun Eid at Ragunan, Spreading Love Through Animals, Pursuing Blessings” during this year’s Eid al-Fitr holiday. The theme represents the philosophy of the Eid atmosphere as a moment to foster compassion towards animals as part of efforts to attain blessings in life.
