Bronx Zoo
On Sunday we went to the Bronx Zoo. As his name said it is situated in the Bronx. It opened in 1899 and it was the first zoo who put the animals in natural environment instead of simple cages. There are more than 4000 animals in this zoo, it is really big. There is also the biggest artificial tropical forest of the world. It is called the « Congo Gorilla Forest » where there are lots of monkeys.
We really enjoyed to see the animals, but the zoo could be better maintained, sometimes we had the feeling that the park is neglected. The visit was pleasant but we didn’t see all the zoo because it’s too big and we haden’t enough time. It was great to walk in the nature. We didn’t see any buildings and we didn’t hear the noise of the city during all our visit. What a quiet afternoon! Here is some nice pictures :
