I was least excited when my elder sister asked me to accompany her at the zoo of Karachi. She comes once in a year to visit Khi along with her kids. So, it's really hard to say no to her. Anyways, I also was happy for the fact that we were going on a Wednesday afternoon (This week day - the management only allows women and kids) I was relieved in a way ;) If you're a Pakistani girl, reading this, you'll get it :D
When we reached there; the zoo was full of greenery and absolutely clean. I was extremely excited to explore different areas of the zoo as this was the 2nd time of my life that I was visiting this place. My family got a really nice spot to sit at. We were sitting under a breathtaking giant tree.We also took some snacks along with us to get that old school picnic feel. It felt amazing. The food over there is not recommended at all.If you plan to go there,then I would recommend to take something to eat with you.
It wasn't crowded which was a bonus for me because I don't like crowded places. Kids loved the place because of the animals of course. As far as I have observed its a great place to have a girly outing too. I saw girls playing baraf paani and badminton that too without the tension of any random stares. It was a beautiful sight. Also, they have this beautiful train ride which helps you exploring the zoo without the hassle of walking. Best for all the lazy girls and aunties out there :D I love walking in case you all are wondering.
Entrance ticket - 20 Rupees per person
For kids its half the price
Some tips for you all if you plan to go there.

I am writing this for all those oblivious people who always brag like me that we do not have fun places in Karachi. Yes, it might not be too appetizing for most of you'll but there might be a number of people who'd like to try this place after reading this blog.
My nephew and nieces so loved the place that they wanted to visit one more time before they leave. So we had no other option :P
