Can you believe the most wonderful time of the year, the holiday season, is finally upon us? We’ll soon be busy shopping for and wrapping gifts, baking holiday goodies, and reminiscing about holidays past with family and friends. During the busy days, we’ll probably also make time to get out there and make or continue treasured traditions, including exploring the Wild Lights in Missouri.

When the sun goes down during the holiday season, the Saint Louis Zoo transforms into a magical spectacle of lights and holiday cheer.

Bundle up for your stroll along the paths that are dotted with twinkling lights and illuminated figures – hippos and chameleons, for example.
