Visitors to Chester Zoo may soon be able to stay overnight, with giraffes roaming right past the windows.
Plans have been submitted for lodge accommodation at the zoo, as well as a large restaurant with views across the plains.
It's part of the attraction's Grasslands proposal, due to open to the public in 2022.
The enormous project shows lodges surrounding a large lake, complete with over-water balconies and a bridge crossing over to an island in the centre of the water.

There are additional, larger lodges with wrap-around viewing decks that will face onto a giraffe enclosure - and there are even giraffe-feeding platforms.
In total, the plans will see 42 safari-style lodges built at the zoo.

The centrepiece of the Grasslands area will be an open African Savannah habitat, home to animals such as the Rothschild's giraffe and Grevy's zebra, plus ostrich and antelope.
It will be the largest stage in the zoo's development plan, which hopes to introduce even more natural habitats to help with the conservation of threatened species.
Also part of the plans is a brand new 182-cover restaurant, with a further 68 covers on an external viewing platform.
Huge windows will look out across the habitats around the restaurant, which will include the African Village, small mammals, painted dogs, the vulture aviary, and that enormous Savannah Habitat.
A self-service breakfast area has been planned in, so you can buffet away to your heart's content with a herd of zebra just outside.
