One question: in some places I real that Sofia's zoo was between 1888 and 1890 in Princely Palace Park; between 1890 and 1984 in Park na Svobodata (15 Tolbukhin Blvd.); and since 1984 in its current place. Then there have been two changes of location. In other places I read that there have only been two locations: one between 1888 and ca. 1982 and another in its current place. Does anyone know the correct version?
