Having been to a lot of zoos all over the US, I like this one best except for possible the Colorado Springs Zoo. It is more relaxed and lots of shady spots to walk and rest. Our kids love it!

a beautiful oasis of all kinds of flora, desert and otherwise, adding much needed color to the often brown Albuquerque landscape. Kid friendly. A fun, quiet place to hang out. Plenty of parking, room to picnic, hiking trails and the Rio Grande right there.

Nothing to dislike keeps the little ones entertained in a beautiful relaxing setting. This is something for Albuquerque to be really proud of showing off.

Lovely botanic garden, great butterfly exhibit. Would be a nice park to bring a picnic lunch and enjoy the greenery. Ticket sellers were awful. Rude and grouchy, they clearly do not enjoy their jobs and were not hired for their personalities. The docent gentlemen in the butterfly exhibit were great, as was the gal in the gift shop.

The Albuquerque Bio Park is actually a set of four different attractions. 1) Tingley Beach is not a swimming beach, but a popular fishing hole that used to be a swimming area. 2) The zoo is a 5-star attraction and park that is always worth a visit. Bring a picnic and enjoy the entire day here. 3) The botanic gardens... More

Great children's garden. butterfly pavilion, local plants.The garden has activities year round. December has the winter light display, spring the aquarium, summer and winter the botanical gardens. Both the aquarium and park offer areas of play for the kids. You can spend hours touring this facility.

Wonderful exhibits of plants, trees, and bush's from all kinds of different locations that are nice to take pictures of for those that enjoy photographing nice stuff like that.

A great way to spend half a day. We enjoyed the well-maintained park and all of the great shade. The poar bears were the highlight!

We are members and go often; mostly on weekdays. This is a gem in the desert (and ABQ is a desert!). Lovely plants, seasonal color. Just an all-round nice place to stroll and spend a pleasant hour or two. I highly recommend the BioPark!
