San Diego Zoo, San Diego( Tammy Spratt / San Diego Zoo )
It's only about 100 acres, but it contains worlds, with about 4,000 animals and 700,000 plants in a setting that's been evolving since 1916. Plan on four hours. First-timer? Consider the 35-minute bus tour. Adult admission: $37. If you want another day of animal explorations, remember that the San Diego Zoo's Safari Park (formerly the Wild Animal Park) is about 30 miles north, near Escondido.
