Metro Richmond Zoo is home away from home to more than 450 animals, from big cats to nocturnal critters. Hand-feed giraffes, catch a penguin-feeding and watch the antics of the large monkey population at this zoological park a short way from central Richmond. Plan to spend about an hour and a half walking the zoo’s paved, stroller-friendly paths. There is also a picnic area and a seasonal snack shop.
