Inspired by Singapore zoo
MYSURU,AUGUST 09, 2017 00:00 IST
The open-sky amphitheatre at the Mysuru zoo has been inspired by the one in Singapore zoo.
About Rs. 2.3 crore has been spent on the construction of the amphitheatre, located next to Tandi Sadak, close to the service gate on M.G. Road.
Artwork on wild animals on both sides of the entrance aimed at spreading the message of wildlife conservation welcomes the visitors. What is appealing about this zoo’s amphitheatre is that it has a natural canopy — tall trees providing shade to the entire venue — which has a built up area of around 1,100 sq. m.
Ravikumar, a Mysuru-based architect, has designed the facility built to host a variety of events. The amphitheatre will be the new venue for all the zoo’s activities such as youth club events, wildlife-centric programmes, conservation education activities, screening of wildlife-based films, and in–house events.
