Discover
the world at the Virginia Zoo. Open year round, the Virginia
Zoo offers family fun, education and excitement for everyone.
The
adventure begins upon entering the zoo where fountains, that
are as fun to play in as they are beautiful, await in the Compass
Rose Plaza . See if you can stop a 5- foot, 17,500 lb. solid
granite Kugel ball, with a globe etched on its surface, rotating
on a thin stream of water. Whether having fun dancing in the
waters of the fountains or taking a spin at changing the direction
of the world, adventure awaits.
Just
past the Compass Rose Plaza , you will travel to Africa and
enter a world of wonderment. Enter the African market village
and the African savannah - home to elephants, mandrills, zebras,
meerkats, and more. Enjoy a breathtaking walking safari on the
boardwalk and experience animals in their naturalistic habitats
of Africa .
Experience
wildlife from every corner of the globe as you continue just
around the corner where you will find tigers, reptiles, ocelots
and squirrel monkeys - just to name a few. You can even come
nose to nose with a prairie dog in the interactive prairie dog
habitat where viewing bubbles allow you to get up close and
personal with these entertaining and magnificent creatures.
