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.

The main highlight of this hotel is definitely the hot springs, especially the milky-white outdoor bath. It’s incredibly soothing.

I took the little train to Kameoka, then switched to the boat for a ride down the Hozu River. The scenery along the way was stunning, and sometimes the rapids made it really exciting and fun.
