The Ark Avilon's is located in Tiendesitas, Pasig. Its unique shape resembling an ark was inspired from Noah's ark an ancient vessel known as the first Saviour of World's Biodiversity. So it actually looks like a boat! The story of Noah's Ark can be found in the Book of Genesis in the Bible. It tells the story of Noah, who was instructed by God to build a vessel to save his family and samples of animals all over the world from a great flood. The flood will be sent by God to destroy the evilness of men.

It houses small to medium size animals and has section for petting them. The zoo claims to be the 1st and only interactive indoor zoo in the Philippines as of date. Most of the animals are enclosed with a glass wall for viewing. Remember not to tap the glass as to avoid aggravating the animals!


The original zoo is farther East in Montalban, Rizal, but this 2,000-square-meter urban safari is just as delightful. Barely six months since it opened, Ark Avilon is already drawing hordes of kids and adults alike, eager to see a giant tortoise, a tiger, a lion and a jaguar up close. There are also less aggressive animals that kids can still have tons of fun watching, such as a python, an orangutan and the ever friendly and playful rabbits

Although the zoo houses in a limited space, the unique attraction that it has was outstanding, It maximize available resources that was mutually beneficial for both animals and Visitors. The cages where the animals are housed are designed for the specific corresponding need for each species.

The first floor of the Ark Avilon features a tampered glass window zone for excellent viewing and limited disturbance for the big predatory animals, a free ranging zone for animals that can be petted and a lounge where you can rest in the atmosphere of at the wild. While the second floor of the Ark Avilon houses a wire mesh aviary for birds, a farm styled cages for domesticated animals and a mini meadow for rodent pet animals. The Second floor was designed as the zone where the visitors can fully participate in caring for the animals, this is where you can touch and feel nature through feeding them.
