Ouwehands ZooOuwehands Dierenpark Rhenen

Ouwehands Dierenpark opened in 1932 on a wooded hill in Rhenen, in the Dutch province of Utrecht. Across about 22 hectares it keeps animals including the giant pandas Xing Ya and Wu Wen (on loan from China since 2017 under an agreement running to 2032), along with polar bears and white lions. It is known for themed habitats such as the Pandasia panda house and the Bear Forest.
