Founded in 1868, the Lincoln Park Zoo is one of the country's last free-admission zoos. There are over 1,200 animal residents, self-guided tours, and interactive activities with seals, polar bears, and penguins—check the schedule for timings. Don’t miss the Regenstein Center for African Apes—a popular habitat showcasing cheeky chimpanzees and majestic gorillas. Navigating the zoo is a breeze with multiple points of entry and wide paths to boot. Check for early closures before visiting and arrive in the morning to cover the majority of the exhibits. – TripadvisorFounded in 1868, the Lincoln Park Zoo is one of the country's last free-admission zoos.

Great zoo for Chicago.Its free all year round which is fabulous.They add to it to keep it interesting.Only things are there are only 1 animal in most enclosures. Which is sad.Concessions are well run and there are many child activities throughout the year for

Last year I went and saw a great place; this is amazing .This zoo park is the one of the best attraction. I love walking through zoo and seeing all of all the animals. It is a great place to take children and adults, and it is free. They have a great number of exhibits, and provide a very pleasant walking experience.
