What I didn't know is that Michigan is home to a very large zoo, one that I've visited multiple times, it's big enough to be listed in the 10 largest zoos in the country.
The Belle Isle Aquarium is one of the most architecturally beautiful buildings in the city and has been standing longer than any other aquarium in the country. They reopened their doors in 2022 after a 16-month-long, 1.2 million-dollar renovation.
