Kate JesseJune 7, 2011Pack a lunch and eat at the impala fountain. The mist feels great on a hot day!
Going to the Summer Ale Fest here is one of the best decisions you could ever make!
Bring quarters or singles to buy food to feed the ducks, sheep and goats.
Park in the frog lot on the street behind the zoo. So much easier to get out.
L bSeptember 21, 2019Small crowds, but old facilities and not a terribly interesting mix of animals.- Great place to watch Amtrak trains go by on Zoological Drive.
Louie 李景雲 LeeOctober 9, 2011Make sure you see the train to see if you want to pay money before buying . Rumor: adults don't pay.
Go on a cool day, 60-70, after noon. More animals out and active.
Jasmine SerranoAugust 18, 2010Its a great place to bring your children (as an excuse to come yourself)!

"A great place to cross-train on some trails via a hike, climb, run, walk, mountain bike... is at Philly's Fairmount Park, the Park covers (4,180 acres), and is the largest landscaped park in the U.S."
