One of the great things about living in Washington DC as an apartment-ite is that there are many things to do in this great city that are FREE! All of the Smithsonian Museums, from the Zoo to the Museum of Natural History, charge no admission. Founded in 1889, the Smithsonian National Zoological Park is located on 163 acres in northwestern DC and hosts approximately 2,000 animals within 400 different species. Its mission is to offer leadership in animal care, education, science and sustainability in an urban landscape just 20 minutes by subway from the National Mall. This zoo is unique in that almost one fifth of the species are endangered or threatened. One such species is the Asian Elephant. One elephant, Ambika, turned 60 this year and a special birthday celebration was held for her. Three giant pandas live in their specially designed habitat at the zoo and on cool mornings can be seen happily playing outside. A Panda Cam allows you to view them when they prefer to remain indoors. Orangutans and western lowland gorillas are a thrill to watch in the Great Ape House, while smaller primates, including golden lion tamarins, Geoffroy's marmosets, and howler monkeys, can be found in the Small Mammal House. And don't miss the orangutans doing a tightrope act between two monkey residences. The Great Cats exhibit displays Sumatran tigers and African lions that are living, breathing, roaring great cats. How fun it is to watch them prowl around their habitat. The list of additional animals, amphibians, sea life, birds and reptiles on site is extensive. The zoo is an extraordinary adventure day of hanging out with animals, and most probably very accessible from your apartment. From young to old, a day at the zoo is pleasing to everyone.
