Just wondered what everyone thought on the best single exhibit for animals in any zoo/safari park in the UK.
Personally I think London's Tiger Territory and Gorilla Kingdom are pretty impressive but I've got to give it to Penguin beach at London Zoo.
 
The best.......

I reckon Auk Cliff at Living Coasts is the best single exhibit, closely followed by Paignton's Orang island and then Durrell's Bat enclosure.
 
The single best exhibit I saw in the UK was Edinburgh Zoo's Budongo Chimpanzee house. Can't think of anything else that came close to that (although I only visited London, Chester, Bristol, Cotswold's).
 
Budongo is a good choice, so is the Palace of the Apes at Port Lympne: in both cases the animals have a choice of locations, which Paignton's orangs do not have. Still with the apes, Bristol's renovated gorilla house is good too.
Another house which has been improved by some modernisation is London's reptile house, although it could be argued that it is not a single exhibit.
