National Zoo
Najboljši čas za obisk
Weekday mornings right when gates open at 8am are the quietest, and animals are most active after their overnight rest. Spring and fall offer the most comfortable weather for walking the outdoor habitats.
Nasveti za proračun
Entry is always free, but parking costs $30 for non-members on weekdays and $35 on weekends if you reserve in advance. Take the Metro directly to the Woodley Park-Zoo/Adams Morgan stop instead, saving money and avoiding parking hassles.
Priporočeno za
Families with kids, Wildlife photographers, Budget-conscious travelers, Animal lovers

O znamenitosti
Hitre informacije: Dom več kot 2.100 živali iz 390 vrst, mnoge med njimi redke ali ogrožene, kot so sumatrski tiger in zlati levji tamarin. Živalski vrtovi pande so velika privlačnost že od leta 1972, živalski vrt pa je popolnoma brezplačen vsak dan.
Poudarki: Živalski vrt vodi tih konservatorski program v ozadju, ki je uspešno vzgojil na desetine črnonogih dihurjev, enega najbolj ogroženih sesalcev Severne Amerike, ter jim pomagal pri vrnitvi z roba izumrtja. Te majhne dihurje lahko med pogovori s skrbniki opazujete, kako hitijo po svojih rovih, prizor, ki ga večina obiskovalcev spregleda.
Notranji nasveti
- Skip the long midday panda queue and visit the Asia Trail first thing in the morning when the pandas are most active and eating breakfast.
- Bring a refillable water bottle and use the filling stations scattered throughout the zoo to stay hydrated without buying bottled water.
- The Kid's Farm area near the Connecticut Avenue entrance is rarely crowded and lets children pet friendly goats and donkeys up close.
- Arrive by 9am on weekends to secure one of the limited same-day panda viewing passes available at the Visitor Center.
