The exhibit was created through an extensive reconstruction of the former gibbon and tapir enclosure.
Its residents, the Silvery gibbons, are a critically endangered species found only on the Indonesian island of Java. Fewer than 2,000 individuals remain in the wild.
The large glass walls allow visitors to observe the gibbons even during the colder months.
The surrounding area has been designed as a relaxation zone inspired by the atmosphere of Southeast Asia.
The zone also includes an experience path for foot reflexology therapy.
The ambiance is enhanced by Buddha statues, ethnographic artifacts, and carefully selected tropical plants.
