Lush forest area where you can get up close to gorillas and chimpanzees in a natural habitat.

Is this the place where there is a big glass screen?? If so, you will occasionally get a closer view of a gorilla than you will ever get again as one will come right up to the screen and stare through at you. You almost feel you could reach out and touch it. They are really powerful looking animals. Quite disconcerting!!

Yes, it is and I know what you mean about disconcerting! Their eyes look very human as do their faces - traces of our ancestry here, I think!
