  [Story/ Experience Share]  Welser Tiergarten, Wels, Austria  Half-day in the zoo/  A place to chill during a weekend or the evening with family I am lucky that I can visit Austria as an exchange student through the project that my home university holds. It is a six-month project from February to July 2020. As we all know, in Europe, the pandemic gets more severe from mid-March, and it was fully locked down in Austria after one month. It is absolutely a hard time for everyone. However, with all the residents in Austria working carefully with the government, people were allowed to move around in Austria at the end of April.  With this good news, my friends and I couldn't wait to explore the city we live in. We google up what is around our dorm within walking distance. Surprisingly we found a zoo nearby, and it was totally free to enter. If you live near the city Wels or living in this city, this place is totally worth your 2 hours of attention. Search " Welser Tiergarten "
