Frommer's Review
On 53 acres adjacent to Norfolk's Lafayette Park and bordered by the Lafayette River, Virginia's state zoo is noted for its African plains exhibit. You can take a walking safari on the boardwalk and see rhinos, giraffes, and meerkats among the nearly 400 animals who live here. You'll also see tigers, monkeys, baboons, elephants, reptiles, and colorful birds.
