Traveling to Leicester with children, many primarily visit a place called Tropical Birdland. It is located on the outskirts of the city, and you can see a great variety of birds here - colorful parrots of all hues, daring pigeons, and predatory kites. Besides birds, the zoo also has monkeys, and it's allowed to feed many animals. It is worth noting that birds fly freely from one point of the zoo to another, and even to nearby villages - this demonstrates the most appropriate care for the animals, allowing them to lead their usual way of life.
Another fun place for family leisure activities is the village of Wistow Maze. This is a pretty good place to keep kids busy for a few hours searching for a way out of the maze, as well as playing on the playground. This brings a lot of fun if you believe hundreds of tourists and locals who have already tried this entertainment. Young travelers would also be interested in Twinlakes Park where they can try out all sorts of rides. Here you can find carousels for the smallest ones and older children. Kids can play on the swings, enjoy water slides, swim in a small pool, and look at huge dinosaur figures. The park is very spacious so walking here is always a pleasure. Copyright www.orangesmile.com
