They say that beauty is in the eye of the beholder. What may seem an eyesore to one person, just might be a beautiful masterpiece to another. There are places beloved by communities and protected in the hearts of those that hold their memories of its tattered hallways and decayed rooms dear. This is the way that we feel when we explore places that have been forgotten by time. Left to rot and decay and only holding the silent whispers of what once was. We know that there are people out there with malicious intent toward these places that we venture into. It saddens us when we see the filth and destruction they leave behind, but we want to make something very clear… We are explorers and lovers of history. We in no way, shape or form condone the criminal activities that take place in the historical decaying places that we document. Social media has brought many of these places to the limelight, but the intention is to show the beauty and mystery of abandonment. Not to invite trouble. Trouble will find its way on its own and to say that the peaceful documentation of these places leads to criminal activity, is mind blowing. We have met so many amazing fellow explorers in our travels and are so thankful and humbled by the positive responses we have received. We know that this type of exploration is not for everyone…many people don’t understand why we find such beauty in decay, we can only explain it as a beautiful journey into the past. We invite you to watch our explores and come along as we visit these amazing places. As for the criminal activity that occurs, those individuals are responsible for their own actions. It is a terrible part of our society, but reality, nonetheless. Thank you for taking the time to read this and for loving this location just as much as we do. We hope that through this video, the memories held within will remain.
That's a rad place to get to wander, and to not have to hike through to see is so convenient! The most unexpected location to have a picnic I've seen lol! Great exploring!💕🔦
Sadly this is like the zoos I remember from my childhood with concrete prisons. I'm happy that things have come a long way since then with natural habitats and emphasis on conservation.
I enjoyed this. What an amazing place! Glad its been repurposed. But i did feel this was a tad eerie. Sorry for the late watch guys, but really enjoyed thank you for taking us with you on this adventure ❤👍
Thank you so much for watching!!! It was definitely an eerie place for sure. Just seeing those cages is so depressing and sad. As you can tell we are not big fans of zoo's. Hard to watch a wild animal caged up!!!
I went there today and it was more gated up from last year, me and my cousins went to the abandoned zoo last year on our trip to Cali, and today we went and it was gated up and a lot of new stuff was opened up, when we went last year we were able to go up the steps and check out the places up stairs but now it’s gated, now I wonder if I can check to see if I can even open the gates. Sad to say I need to come back again soon:)
Awww! It’s such a nice place to walk around! We are sorry to hear that it is less accessible. We really enjoyed our time in California and hope to go back again! Thank you so much for watching!☺️☺️
Oh man!! We were going to go there, but we ran out of time. We live in Connecticut (2933 miles away…boo!!! ) , so it will be awhile before we can get back out there. But when we do, that would be on our list for sure!!! We stayed on the Queen Mary for two days, so we were right there!!! Thank you so much for watching and commenting!

Totally agree!!! Seeing those cages/jails is very depressing!

Yeah, I do get that. I feel that in some places too... @@JMExplorations
I think that the sign says 1912-1965. Many of the walls, enclosures, etc. were built by the WPA in the 30s. The zoo clearly predated the 1930s.
Not a fan of zoos as well but good to see the space repurposed with a good place to walk and enjoy the views 🤠🌲🍃
Thank you Gil!!! it's hard to see animals locked up in cages! :(
This looks like the zoo from the movie police academy
I think Police Academy was filmed in Ontario, Canada.
I went there today and it was more gated up from last year, me and my cousins went to the abandoned zoo last year on our trip to Cali, and today we went and it was gated up and a lot of new stuff was opened up, when we went last year we were able to go up the steps and check out the places up stairs but now it’s gated, now I wonder if I can check to see if I can even open the gates.

You guys should do sunken city in Long Beach.
Oh man!! We were going to go there, but we ran out of time. We live in Connecticut (2933 miles away…boo!!! ) , so it will be awhile before we can get back out there.
