An urban paradise for all ages, the San Diego Zoo is a must-see in Southern California. Winding paths through a tropical oasis bring you to more than 4,000 rare and fascinating animals. The lively atmosphere makes the San Diego Zoo a great place for family fun. Discover the wonders of wildlife with animal encounters, interactive experiences, and exciting shows. A leader in animal care and conservation, the world-famous San Diego Zoo is at the heart of the San Diego experience.

Some of the regions you can journey to in the park include:

• Africa Rocks
• Asian Passage
• Discovery Outpost
• Elephant Odyssey
• Lost Forest
• Outback
• Panda Canyon
• Polar Rim
• Urban Jungle

Each of the San Diego Zoo’s exhibits houses creatures with some quirky personalities.

Discover some of the amazing feats that the zoo’s animals have accomplished. Gram, an Indian rhinoceros, for example, knows how to paint with his lips. With the help of his keeper, Gram dabs paint onto his lips and proceeds to spread the paint on the canvas in front of him. Similarly, Chips, the Galapagos tortoise, knows how to balance an apple on her nose. Introduce yourself to the zoo’s most unusual animal: the binturong named Bandar, an animal closely related to the civet and the mongoose.

Take some time to visit the San Diego Zoo's most popular residents – the Giant Pandas at the Panda Research Station at the Panda Canyon. Meet five of the cutest animals at the zoo as you watch them play and chew on sticks of bamboo and learn about their habitat and their livelihood.

Absorb the plant life that also resides in the lands native to the San Diego Zoo’s critters like the orchid collection. Enjoy some of the other gardens the park has to offer like the Australian Wonders, Tiger River, Madagascar Garden, the Bromeliad, and the Sun Bear Forest, to name a few.
