 A September afternoon at the
Baltimore Zoo by AKtravelers
Unless the zoo, closes, this won't bother you much. The influx of charity money means the grounds are well-appointed and some new exhibits are being developed. And if you go on a weekday while school is in session, you may have the place to yourself! Leave a Comment Directions: Off of Jones Falls expressway, 83.

When we were toddlers, my mom and grandmother used to take us here.
So we've come with our children and their friends. One of the new exhibits is the Polar Bear Watch, the Zoo's new state-of-the-art exhibit about life on the edge of the Arctic. You can watch the polar bears cavort in the water.
But there is more to do than just look at the animals and have the animals look at you - such as a climbing wall (photo 2). And my son has adopted animals at the zoo (a fund raising deal)

Just the right size for spending a day or just a few hours, the Baltimore Zoo is easy to access from 83 N/S. The Zoo is spread over and up and down some hills, so wear your sneakers and bring your camera. The exhibits range from MD animals to a petting zoo, to the African area which has the most animals, and is a kid-pleaser.
Polar bears and prarie dogs are located near the snack shop, so you can munch while watching the bears swim or the dogs pop in and out of their burrows.
Prices are high in the shops, so you might want to bring your own snacks and avoid the souvenir shop. Don't forget to visit the glass arboretum on your way in/out, as it's open to the public and boasts some wonderful plants -- recently renovated. Directions: Off of Jones Falls expressway, 83. Follow exit around the water and keep to right. Once on Druid Hill Drive, zoo entrance signs posted after a few lights, and just at the large glass greenhouse to your right. Turn right into park, follow signs to lot.

This small zoo has a fairly interesting collection of animals but the admission charge ($11) is way out of proportion to its small collection. None the less if your a zoo fan this is a small but nice visit. Leave a Comment
