Central Park Zoo Tickets
The Best Zoo in New York
Located in the southeastern area of Manhattan's Green Lung, the Central Park Zoo is home to three ecosystems, each replicated in the finest detail. Thanks to its rich history and evolution since it opened in 1861, this zoo is the oldest and best-preserved in the state of New York.
You'll immediately be surprised by the Central Park Zoo from the moment you walk through its entrance adorned with animal-shaped statues. One of the first areas you'll enjoy is the central garden and the pool with playful sea lions. Spanning 6.4 acres (2.6 hectares), you'll see a diverse array of species, from monkeys and snow leopards to tropical birds. Amazing!
Central Park Zoo is part of the Wildlife Conservation Society, which plays a crucial role in rescuing and conserving endangered wild species. By purchasing a ticket to the Central Park Zoo, you're not just guaranteeing yourself a fun time–you're also supporting one of the noblest causes humanity can contribute to the planet.
