This is a double water-moated enclosure?? Can I see right, this is a glass panel for the visitors on the background inside the artificial rock?

No and no. The first water surface is a creek that runs through the zoo, the second one is a water moat. There is no visitor area behind the artificial rock, there are night dens for the lions.

So no barrier except the water, am I right?

There are electric fences on the bank of course (the same system as the lion island in Plzen). Lions are excellent swimmers, I would never pass a gate of a zoo, that would have only water moats between me and the lions. :-)
