Happy monday girls!

I had a great weekend; I had to work on Saturday till midnight but yesterday I went to the best zoo and theme park of Belgium and the Netherlands: Pairi Daiza. I had so much fun there! There were so much animals I had never seen before and on top of that it was a huge and beautiful park. It was divided in parts that represented all the continents all over the world. It mostly is Asian inspired as you will see on the pictures below. I had the best time here: laughing with funny animals, enjoying this beautiful park and admiring the views. We saw a lot of unique animals, but I was mostly impressed by the beauty of the Asian buildings and gardens.

Description on the website of Pairi Daiza:
"Pairi Daiza means enclosed garden in ancient Persian. It is the oldest known name for paradise. A garden of 55 acres, built at the foot of the ruins of the Cistercian order abbey of Cambron and shielded from the outside world by a wall of three kilometers long. Come inside, leave your troubles behind and allow yourself to be moved by hat you see. By nature, first and foremost, with its ancient trees, its beautiful flowers, its lush plants from all over the world. The treasures of architecture and craftsmanship; all authentic; made by men with golden fingers from China, Indonesia, Thailand... Let yourself be moved by the 5,000 animals that live in harmony here. Welcome to our World Garden. Welcome to Pairi Daiza."
