Last update :

This zoo, one of the largest in the world exceeding 50 hectares, allows visitors to see about 300 species of animals, from ants to elephants. Located in the Tama Hills, walking around the park gives the feeling of hiking in a nature park.

The zoo is divided into four areas: the Asian Garden, the African Garden, the Australian Garden, and the Insectarium. Its unique feature is that it reduces the use of cages and separates animals with moats, allowing visitors to observe animals living freely.

It's a pioneer that created the world's first lion bus and insect ecology park. It also has a wildlife conservation center and works on the protection and breeding of endangered animals like the crested ibis and the Japanese stork.

Highlights

  • The popular "skywalk," where orangutans cross a rope that is about 15m high and 150m long. (Canceled in bad weather)
  • A free shuttle bus operates within the park.
  • The park is engaged in the protection and propagation of endangered animals.

    本來就想玩半天好了,沒想到玩夠一整天!
    動物們都好可愛,種類多到數不過來。
    東京親子又不想太擁擠的話來這裡就對了!
    不過園區內有很多坡道,建議穿好走的鞋子來才好喔~

    很大的區域大概有上野動物園的四陪大,坐接駁車到上面再慢慢觀賞走下來,尢其是蝴蝶館,蝴蝶翩翩迎面飛姿態萬千,門口動物的標誌是一定得拍照留念的地方
