Founded in 1913, this 72-acre site is nestled in Boston's historic Franklin Park, long considered the "crown jewel" of Frederick Law Olmsted's Emerald Necklace Park System. Come face-to-face with African lions of the Kalahari Kingdom, Masai giraffe and Grevy's zebra of the Giraffe Savannah, and western lowland gorillas of the Tropical Forest. www.franklinparkzoo.org/index.cfm?nodeID=2&stopRedirect...

A wonderful zoo, but sadly in a high crime neighborhood. Tourists beware.
