Core Safari bus zone and the other five sections
The park is divided into six sections: the Core Safari, Safari Kingdom, the Biodiversity Park, the Extensive Asian Safari Park, a central square and a children's park. In the Core Safari, which covers 1,335 acres, only authorised buses may enter, and visitors watch the animals from the bus in large fenced areas, including an African safari zone.
