Riverbanks Zoo & Garden

Riverbanks ⁠‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌‌​‌‌​‌​‌​​‌​‌‌​‌​‌‌‌​​‌⁠is Columbia's zoo and botanical garden, spread along the Saluda River with animal habitats on one bank and a garden on the other. Beyond daily visits it runs a short list of signature evenings, led by a winter holiday light show on select nights from late November into January, plus adult-only nights with drinks and a fall Halloween event.
