Light ensembles with animal and fantasy figures

A spectacular highlight awaits visitors with the China Lights at the Cologne Zoo. This fascinating light installation transforms the animal world into a realm of colors and shapes. A light trail spans the entire zoo grounds, designed with environmentally friendly LED lights, thereby also setting a sign for sustainability. Ornaments and sculptures made from illuminated fabrics invite you on a journey full of magic and wonder.
