The Cleveland Metroparks Zoo does an impressive job of gathering various species of animals and presenting them in incredible reproductions of their natural habitats. When you step through the zoo's front gates, be prepared to not only discover more about animals and plants but to also learn about how to explore and protect our environment. The zoo is home to literally thousands of animals placed on rolling, wooded landscapes. Some are situated in the simulated Rainforest. Either way, an incredible experience awaits you at this award winning zoo.
Don't let the exterior of Cleveland's Duck Island intimidate you. Sure, the building may seem a bit grandiose and intimidating from the outside, but once you find your way in and get comfortable, you'll find that the nightlife venue seems to hark back to a classier era when the simple things like sitting close to your partner, having a quiet conversation and enjoying a well-made cocktail were things that were all worth celebrating. Happily, at Duck Island, they still are.
