This one? Really? I am with you most of the way but I really dislike this exhibit. The Gorillaberg may be spacious enough for a small troop of gorillas but the design is hopeless. The water moat is steep and potentially dangerous and there is NOTHING in there. The exhibits interior consists of a grassy slope with two dead trees, a few small rocks and a stream. And indoors is a typical old-style great ape exhibit. I won't rant on about that as it is from a different time but I won't call it the best either. Just to clarify what we are talking about:

It was just of the top of head. I don't think i ever saw the inside it's quite dreadful. I think i'll just stick with pongoland leipzig then. Most inside cages for great apes that i saw are dreadful by the way now i think about it.
