Born from the emergence of rock pioneering in the Palo Duro Canyon, A.R.C.H. is a place where anyone can escape the city to enjoy a culture that many haven't experienced. Located on historical Route 66, A.R.C.H. is a stone's throw away from Amarillo's downtown restaurants, antique shops, cafes and nightlife. Come enjoy sending for the dedicated climber and fun for the entire family!

Founded in 1955 the Amarillo Zoo is a place to share the wonders of the animal world with kids of all ages. The beautiful 15-acre site is located in Thompson Park and features over 60 species of animals. The zoo is designed for fun and discovery and will provide a lifetime of memories. Here, you'll do more than just look...you'll experience the animal world.
Small zoo with some big animals, including lions, bengal tigers and bears. Well worth the visit. Took about an hour. Very reasonable cost at $4-5 per person. Very informative staff.
