Wanpark Kochi
Packed with kid-friendly fun, from animals to attractions.
Just a 10-minute drive from central Kochi City, this lush multi-purpose park offers free admission and features a large pond with a towering waterfall. Its spacious grounds are divided into four main zones, including Animal Land, where visitors can see approx. 90 species and over 500 animals up close; Play Land, with a Ferris wheel and playground equipment; and a waterside walking area with athletic equipment.
Animal Land is a compact urban zoo that keeps approx. 90 species, including flamingos, zebras, lions, and parrots. Its appeal lies in how close visitors can get to the animals, especially at the indoor Animal Gallery, where you can observe them at very close range with only a pane of glass in between.
At Play Land, which has 28 attractions and playground features, the aerial swing Chain Tower and the colorful Ferris wheel are especially popular (paid, ticket-based attractions). Character-themed play equipment is also available, offering a different atmosphere from a typical park.
