    Recently expanded and now more than double in size. Beautiful landscaping with picnic areas, children's playground and new cafe.

    Newly expanded! The upper level of the zoo connects around to the giraffes and is so beautifully designed

    If you live nearby it's totally worth a year pass. Only $100 and if you renew before it expires only $85.
