PORTALJABAR, BANDUNG CITY - The children's faces radiated joy. The expression radiated as they toured the Bandung Zoo (3/17/2025).

There are some of them who have never visited Bandung Zoo before.

They are orphans from Assabiqunal Awwalun and Al Fitra Orphanages. They were invited to visit Bandung Zoo by the Bandung City Hall (PBB) Reporter.

One of the participants, Naira, felt happy while "ngabuburit" around Bandung Zoo.
