Tobu Zoo is a leisure park that combines a zoo with Heartful Garden, where visitors can appreciate a variety of plants, an amusement park, and a pool open only in summer.

The zoo is home to approximately 1,200 animals representing about 120 species, including white tigers. Visitors can see the animals up close at events such as Ga-Ga Walking, featuring a parade of geese, and the Hamadryas Baboon Dash, in which a troop of baboons races energetically across its enclosure.

A wide range of animal-feeding experiences is also available, including opportunities to feed white tigers, ring-tailed lemurs, and alpacas.

The amusement park has approximately 30 attractions. One of the most popular is the Wooden Roller Coaster Regina II (Due), whose renovated cars offer a smooth ride accompanied by the distinctive creaking of a wooden coaster.
