Clevelanders know that if you're looking for adventure, there's always something going on at the Cleveland Metroparks Zoo.
The Cleveland Metroparks Zoo is always a great time. This 183-acre wildlife park features a number of unique international landscapes and it has a history that is intertwined with that of Cleveland. In fact, the first Cleveland zoo was located where the Museum of Art now stands, though it has been in its current location for more than 100 years.
It's also home to a landscape that is beautiful and impressive.
Programs, events, and newly unveiled attractions keep the park feeling fresh. Events like wintertime lights and summertime lantern festivals ensure there is something to do all year round, but there is now one more attraction that belongs on your zoo to-do list.
