A really good, massive zoo which can be hard to find in cities like London where space is limited. They have everything here and it's well laid out. Great place to take the kids, but I've also been on dates here - it provides plenty of talking points! I love the penguins and the monkeys, but then how could anyone not? I went to one of their events where they open the park at night and have music playing etc. It was a nice vibe, but you couldn't see any of the animals! (sounds ridiculous, i know, but it was true: they didn't want to light the place up for the comfort of the animals, which I totally agree comes first, but then how are we supposed to see anything). I wouldn't advise that event, but in the day time the place is great fun.

Everybody has heard of London Zoo. And a obvious tourist attraction for anyone visiting London. A clich£aying I know, but it really is perfect for a family day out and with so much there you would struggle to get bored. My favourite part is the aquarium, but im sure the Zoo as a whole is one of those places in those Must do in London type lists.
