I've been going to this zoo for over 50 years and still love it. It's small but they do a really nice job of making it interesting and with lots of nooks and crannies. Elephants, hippos, rhinos, lemurs, lions, giraffes, crocs, zebras, and shaved ice, too. The petting zoo is awesome for little kids with a mountain of goats.
The Honolulu Zoo is unique in that it is the only zoo in the United States to be established by grants made by a sovereign monarch. In 1914, the City of Honolulu assumed responsibility for Kapi`olani Park and Ben Hollinger, the first Park Director for Kapi`olani Park, began collecting animals “for the children of Hawai`i.” His collection began with a monkey, bear and an African elephant. In 1947, 42.5 acres within Kapi`olani Park, was designated as the Honolulu Zoo. A Master Plan in 1984, was developed for a Tropical Zoological Garden. All exhibits were organized into three tropical ecological zones: the African Savanna, Asian and American Tropical Forests, and Pacific Islands. There are approximately 900 different animals from the tropics that now reside at the Honolulu Zoo. Komodo Dragons, orangutans, elephants, primates, birds, reptiles, amphibians, and a variety of African animals can be viewed in their specially-designed habitats daily.
