Amazonia — Attraction in Washington

Wow. Just wow. I was absolutely blown away by Amazonia. You walk in and see a small little rainforest aquarium and some trees on the right and see spoonbills wandering the hallway which is a joy to see 😁. And then there is the huge aquarium windows on the left as you walk through to the next part of the exhibit. Lots of big fish and interesting species to admire! And THEN, you walk upstairs and see the HUGE INDOOR RAINFOREST 😱🐊 and realize that the aqauriums from below are now the small river next to the path as you walk by a waterfall and huge tress and endless foliage and birds soaring overhead and the spoonbills from below are walking around 😂😁 A truly magical place - I spent over 20 minutes just standing there absorbing the incredible spectacle 🤩❤️😍 ... And that's not even the end of it!! There is also more to see! Laboratories and all kinds of colorful tree frogs...

Not really impressive. This is a small area of the Washington Zoo, but since you are there and it is free, it worth the visit. But being from Montreal and having the Biodome there, we were not impress by the content....fishes mainly, some monkeys and birds but nothing more you cound'nt see elsewhare in other location and parks.

Again, the zoo is free and the Amazonia area is included, do not expect that much, but if you visit the zoo, let's have a look. It take about 30 minutes to walk through the...

Nice little zoo. The only place to see panda bears in the US.

Get your tickets in advance on your phone email qr code. It is free, but they still have timed entry like covid protocol.

Wear good walking shoes, and be prepared to walk on inclines. The zoo is on a hill. When we entered from Connecticut Ave, we were at the top of the hill. We walked the entire zoo, going downhill. To get back out, you gotta walk up.

If you have diabetes, there are no sugar free food options...
