One of the highlights of any visit to St. Louis is the St. Louis Zoo.
The Saint Louis Zoological Park (commonly known as the Saint Louis Zoo) is a zoo in Forest Park, St. Louis, Missouri. It is recognized as a leading zoo in animal management, research, conservation, and education. The zoo is accredited by the Association of Zoos and Aquariums (AZA). Admission is free based on a public subsidy from a cultural tax district, the Metropolitan Zoological Park and Museum District (ZMD); fees are charged for some special attractions. A special feature is the 2 ft (610 mm) narrow gauge Emerson Zooline Railroad with passenger trains pulled by Chance Rides C.P. Huntington locomotives that encircle the zoo, stopping at the more popular attractions.

The St. Louis Zoo was founded in 1910, after the City of St. Louis purchased the walk-through bird cage that the Smithsonian had built for the 1904 World’s Fair.
That aviary would become the first exhibit of the new zoo, and would go on to be home to thousands of animals from 1910 through to the present. You can currently see 100s of animals across all orders, everything from centipedes to elephants.
