I have been to a couple of Zoos, but Henry Doorly is truly something special. A good place to visit at all times of year (since they have indoor exhibits too), their IMAX is great and has plently of educational options for those interested in learning more about animals or nature through documentaries. Don't forget that the dome has an underground exhibit as well! They allow you to bring food and water to be sure to save money on that front!

What amazing acoustics and comfortable seating. The Omaha Symphony performance with professional singers and dancers was outstanding. Beautifully decorated for the season and a choir up high in the background was spectacular. Even when stepping out of the theatre, the sound was piped into the lobby and bath areas. Bravo!
