Chausuyama Zoo
A nature-rich zoo set in the forest. Around 70 animal species live across its vast 15-hectare grounds. One of its biggest draws is the many exhibits that make use of the natural terrain, where you can see the animals living at ease.
Seriously so cute~ The whole zoo is up on a mountain, and the air feels so fresh. Walking around almost feels like a stroll through the forest.
There were more kinds of animals than I expected, including red pandas, giraffes, lions, and adorable meerkats. The red pandas are super popular and just ridiculously cute! 🦝
Best of all, the admission is super cheap, such a great deal. The grounds are also kept really clean, and there’s no bad smell.
Just keep in mind that the terrain is a bit hilly, so it can get a little tiring, but honestly it’s still really pleasant when you’re enjoying the scenery and the animals at the same time.
