Suggestions for Arts and Entertainment near National Zoological Park, Washington

Stephen C. • August 31, 2018Curators and keepers are super nice. Be sure to meet the wallabies, Geoffrey's marmosets, and coatis out back!

Angie H. • September 22, 2014Somewhat off of the beaten path and so less crowded. Like a combination of aquarium and jungle exhibit.

Annie D. • April 15, 2014The lions and tigers don't love the heat of the day. Come early or near 4 for feeding times!

Kim C. • August 3, 2012A must see and has an indoor exhibit for hot summer days. Only one of 4 Zoos in the US which has Pandas.

Elizabeth M. • June 5, 2014The feeding is usually around 11:15am. If you bring a tennis ball, the pup will play with you

Kelli F. • August 19, 2013The Giant Tortoises rock!!

Markus T. • January 18, 2016It's definitely great to see the elephants here, but sometimes you can get a better view from the bridge on the Asia Trail

JH H. • October 23, 2018Closest “trail” to the entrance, but also the best in the zoo.

Reginald A. • October 21, 2013It's a great place to be a monkey.

Ju L. • April 19, 2019Great area for kids! The names of the animals are on the fence. Pretty great place to start off the zoo visit!

Andrew A. • November 11, 2012The wolves & under water seal & sea lion areas are particularly cool. Great exhibit.

Angie H. • September 22, 2014Apparently you can play tug of war with an ape!

Derek J. • October 6, 2014The best place to observe the pandas is from the upper part of the trail where you can get a bird's eye view of the entire habitat.

Markus T. • January 18, 2016The views from the bridge are actually pretty cool and offer some great views of the elephants
