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.

For a classic evening of unforgettable music, plan to take in a performance of the Cleveland Orchestra. The city's symphony brings the works of such composers as Mozart, Beethoven, Strauss and Brahms to life in their many performances. In addition to an already busy year-round entertainment schedule, the orchestra offers special seasonal concerts to lift your spirits in a most melodic way.

A popular destination for aquatic recreation is Wallace Lake in Berea. Not only is the lake plentifully stocked with rainbow trout to please the many anglers who visit, but you can also enjoy a swim or a canoe ride on the water too. If you prefer to stay dry, then enjoy the lake from the shore as you picnic or just bask in the sunshine.
