This was a great experience. We seen many animals. We were curious if they had a Zoo and cane up with the conclusion that they didn't have one. However they do have alot of animals to see.

Lots to see and interesting. Restaurant expensive with not a lot of choices. Very busy as weather was wet and cold outside.

Beautiful and informative insectarium and aquarium. Fun for even a jaded teenager. Animals were well cared for and exhibits were engaging and visually appealing.
