点评:I have been visiting the NC Zoo since I was a small child, and while I have grown older, the Zoo has grown and improved its services, exhibits, and the diverse array of animals and flora that populate the NC Zoo.
On this visit, I had the pleasure of accompanying my partner, who is a massive fan of zoos, and this was her first time in North Carolina. I had to treat her and take her to the best Zoo on the East Coast!
As always, the signage and park were well maintained and accurate, there were only a few closed exhibits and you knew well in advance that they were closed, so there was no extra walking, as the NC Zoo is a prominent place, my partner and I even rode the Tram twice, and still managed to rack up over 6.5 miles on our pedometer. Therefore, bringing good walking shoes is essential, as well as considering hydration and wearing temperature-appropriate clothes.
The NC Zoo is working on an “Asia” area, which promises to feature animals from this region, and what appears to be a walking deck for viewing the animals from above. I am particularly excited for this, as some of my favorite animals and plants hail from the Asian region of the world.
The food and beverages are a little pricy. Still, with that being said, the admission was only $22, which is only $2 more than the Greensboro Science Center, which takes maybe 2 hours, if you walk at a very leisurely pace, and the NC Zoo REQUIRES a whole day to get to every exhibit and see the lovely creatures within. And, I know the food & beverages are a way that the Zoo makes a profit, as there is no way $22 covers any cost related to the upkeep of exotic animals.
翻译:我从小就经常去北卡罗来纳州动物园。随着我年龄的增长,动物园也不断发展壮大,服务、展览以及动物园里种类繁多的动植物也得到了提升。
这次参观,我很荣幸能陪同我的伴侣,她是一位超级动物园迷,这是她第一次来北卡罗来纳州。我一定要好好犒劳她,带她去东海岸最好的动物园!
和往常一样,动物园的标识和公园维护得井井有条,而且很准确。只有几个展览馆关闭了,而且你提前知道它们关闭了,所以不用额外步行。北卡罗来纳州动物园本身就很有名,我和我的伴侣甚至坐了两次有轨电车,但仍然在计步器上记录了超过6.5英里的距离。因此,带一双舒适的步行鞋至关重要,同时还要考虑补充水分并穿着适合温度的衣服。
北卡罗来纳州动物园正在筹备一个“亚洲”主题区,承诺将展出来自亚洲的动物,并建造一个看起来像是观景台的地方,供人们从上方观赏这些动物。我对此特别兴奋,因为我最喜欢的一些动植物都来自亚洲地区。
这里的食物和饮料有点贵。不过,门票只要22美元,只比格林斯伯勒科学中心贵2美元。格林斯伯勒科学中心如果步行的话,大概需要2个小时,而北卡罗来纳州动物园需要一整天的时间才能参观完每个展览,欣赏里面可爱的动物。而且,我知道食物和饮料是动物园盈利的一种方式,因为22美元根本无法支付任何与饲养珍稀动物相关的费用。
