The National Zoo in Washington, DC is great entertainment for the entire family. This zoo is HUGE! I spent the good part of a day there and had a blast ... they have pretty much every animal you could possibly want to see, and a ton of shows and exhibits to check out. The shopping and restaurants are slightly expensive, of course, but no more than at most other zoos. The grounds are well maintained and the staff is friendly. Going to the National Zoo is a great way to spend a day in the nation's capital!
