The exhibits are also fascinating and plentiful. A favorite among visitors is the penguin habitat, where dozens of penguins play, swim, and splash around.

Another must-see spot is the giraffe area. Not only is it amazing to see these tall creatures up close, but you can also get the opportunity to feed them as well.

My favorite thing about the Maryland Zoo is how nostalgic it is for many locals. This place has been around for decades and still retains some of its oldest features, signs, and exhibits. You’ll likely still recognize spots from when you first visited years ago.
