Quote: The zoo is quite large, so it may be worth visiting multiple times! The cats are fun and they have a surprisingly large bird collection. The extra-pay exhibitions are worth it.

Madagascar in the Bronx
Quote: It's not often that in the middle of New York - or more specifically, The Bronx - can one expect to run into a peacock waddling by on the sidewalk. But, at the Bronx Zoo, where the birds roam free, it's a sight to see. Throughout the day, you can... Read the full Bronx Zoo review

Quote: Great place to visit any season. While in the park you almost forget you are in the City. Very well kept and organized. If you are lucky to be in NY during the X-mas season, the Bronx Zoo has the whole park decorated in lights. I went with a friend... Read the full Bronx Zoo review
