Nice place to walk around. The main arterial pathways from some entrances/exits are dotted with vendors. Face painting, tattoos, snacks, whatever. Lots of people after 11 am. If you want lesser people around, come early. There is a nice lake within - boat rentals available. There are lots of beautiful brown squirrels around.

All the way from Dallas, TX! Absolutely loved the park. Great zoo and it was free. Lots of walking - which is my favorite! There’s a big pond where you can paddle boat. Beautiful, well kept park!
