Philadelphia Zoo

1 of 3

The Philadelphia Zoo is located at the intersection of 34th Street and Girard Avenue. The Philadelphia Zoo is notable for being the first zoo in the United States, housing a diverse range of animals on 42 acres in their natural habitats. It is home to over 1,300 species, many of which are rare or endangered.

The African Plains environment, which seems like a safari, is one of the most popular sites to visit at the zoo. It is home to majestic giraffes and fearless white rhinoceroses.

Another famous destination is Big Cat Falls. African lions, Amur tigers, leopards, pumas, and other huge felines may be found in this lovely area.

KidZooU, an educational children's zoo that offers hands-on displays and up-close interactions with the zoo's gentler residents, such as sheep, goats, and other farm animals, is available for younger visitors.
