Nation's third oldest zoo |
Druid Hill Park Baltimore, MD 21217 United States +1 410 366 5466 http://www.marylandzoo.org/ |
Nestled in one of the city's most picturesque parks, this zoo is home to more than 2,250 animals. Although the zoo boasts contemporary exhibits where lions, giraffes and elephants roam freely, remnants of the Victorian era remain. Some mammals are housed in large barred cages that were built a century ago. The Maryland wilderness exhibit, where visitors explore a cave populated by timber rattlesnakes and walk under swimming river otters, is very popular, as is the children's barnyard. Admission charge for is USD15 for adults, USD12 for seniors and USD10 for children between 2 to 11 years. Review © 2007, Wcities |

Amazing underwater experience |
501 East Pratt Street Baltimore, MD 21202 United States +1 410 576 3800 http://www.aqua.org |
This aquarium is perhaps the greatest attraction in Baltimore's celebrated Inner Harbor. The exhibits start small with samples of marine life from local waters, but visitors soon find themselves eye-to-eye with sharks, rays and other very large creatures. A simulated rainforest ecosystem and regularly scheduled dolphin shows round out the attractions. Admission is high, and the wait can be long, but both are worth it. See their website for further details. Review © 2007, Wcities |
