Review:
Located on the slopes of Waikiki and Diamond Head, the 42-acre Honolulu Zoo is most definitely the wildest place in Waikiki as it is home to nearly 1,000 different animals including elephants, orangutans, komodo dragons, birds, reptiles, and an extensive variety of African animals.
There are tons of events and educational programs to participate in at the zoo as well. Open daily, except for Christmas, visitors will treasure the day they spend at the Honolulu Zoo – especially if they have younger children in tow! Other than having fun with animals, visitors will also benefit from a history lesson, as the zoo is the only one in the US that originated in a grant of royal lands to the people by King David Kalakaua in 1876.
