FREE on FIRST TUES of EVERY MONTH after 2PM. Enjoyed it the 3rd time I was here. They have MORE JELLYFISHES, my favorite things to see along with the silly monkeys!
If you expect to see a lot of animals during Zoo lights, don't bother. The reptile house is open, and you can see the giraffes sleeping. There are however a lot of trees with Christmas lights on them.
The Houston Zoo is one of the must visit locations for wild life. Cleverly built in the heart of Houston and near to Hermann Park, it features gorgeous natural scenes, tropical birds n butterflies.
The Houston Zoo is serious about wildlife preservation and happiness, and it shows in each of their enclosures. The giraffe and gorilla sections are my absolute faves.
Membership pays for itself quickly if you're a family of at least three and your kid(s) likes to be outdoors. The children's zoo part is great for younger kids: covered playground & splash pad!
