Although small, the fourth grader was enjoying watching many animals with a camera in one hand. The junior high school students who came with me also enjoyed something.
Most of the customers with small children.

Although I went for the first time, the site is smaller than Tennoji Zoo, Oji Zoo and other Kinki Zoos, but it is renovated and it is a barrier-free and very easy to see facility. The easiest to see are the nocturnal and tropical animal areas. Anyway, it is bright and beautiful. By the way, the street view in the garden seems to be the image before renewal. Above all, the distance from animals is close. Therefore, the beast has a sign to watch out for peeing. If you have a family with small children or a person who needs a wheelchair, you can enjoy each other without overdoing it.

Not only the oldest lions and rhesus monkeys in Japan, but also young tigers, elephants and giraffes. There are plenty of places to see Although the site area is small, various ideas were made and it was fun.

It is fulfilling fulfillment which can not be thought of as a zoo in an urban area!
The facility is fashionable and has a sense of cleanliness, I think that it is safe to use the date as well as the family

A moderately large zoo.

A moderately large zoo.
The eyeballs are tigers, giraffes, gorillas, elephants.
The distance to the animals is close and there is power.
However, the fence and the glass are disturbing, and there are many places not suitable for photography shooting.
It is a beautiful facility and there are lots of benches so I think that I can relax with a box lunch.

Avoid summer
The animals are too hot to come out.
It was very hot and I was told to go home early (-_-;)
We were able to use without inconvenience such as nursing room or diaper change.
The animals are nice, but there are a few rides inside, and I was very happy to play with them so much!
Small but enough for kids.
I've been there several times, but it wasn't always 2 hours to go around all the rest and ride the vehicle.

Walk 15 minutes from Keage subway station.

Walk 15 minutes from Keage subway station.
The site in the park is reasonably small, so you can move around easily. Even though they are small, you can see giraffes, elephants, jaguars and other beasts, and penguins and rabbits and other healing animals.
As the closing time approaches, you can see a big march of the guinea pig (^_^)

Full of parents and children, the size and price are reasonable and you can enjoy it! Small children may be surprised by the power of the tiger. There are also giraffes, elephants, gorillas, birds, chimpanzees, hippos, deer and rare animals.
There are no lions. Unfortunately, Miyako, the Tsushima leopard cat, died in September 2020. I think that many longevity creatures are the result of the efforts of the zookeepers.
I like the handmade explanation panel.
You can spend a relaxing time in a place where you can relax with your lunch box or in the restroom for sketching.

Heian Shrine and museums are also nearby.

I took my grandson and went with my wife and three.
Although it was a zoo, it didn't smell, and I had a pleasant lunch at the bench.
Close to the animals,
In addition, giraffe is same eyes as we go up the stairs
It's fun, and the penguins come to my side.
You can just re-enter the park, but after 16:00
As animals come home, we can hardly see it even if we re-enter the park.

It brought me to tears to see the big cats and the elephants in such tiny and un-stimulating enclosures. There is no way that tigers and lions should be kept in cages the size of a small bedroom all next to each other like that! The lion especially is a pride animal, and should have the company of other lions. These heritage listed tiny enclosures are incredibly cruel and must be stopped. More enrichment is desperately needed for these cats and the elephants who showed continuous stereoptypic pacing and swaying. It was awful to watch. The hippo had no grass, mud or sunlight and was just living on concrete, as were many other animals. Kyoto must revolutionise its zoo to meet international welfare standards.

Kyoto is a world class City. This is not a world class zoo. Cage size was mostly adequate for smaller animals. For the larger animals particularly the large cats this place was downright depressing. Go to Taipei if you want to see a decent zoo in East Asia.

It is surprising that there is such a place. I didn't know, did it renew recently? It was very beautiful.
There are also small little amusement rides.
We recommend going by public transport. I walk a little.

It is located in a quiet place about 10 minutes on foot from the Keebo station on the subway. Immediately behind, Lake Biwa canal is flowing, there are plenty of places to see, such as the ink line of the riser and the Lake Biwa Canal Recycle Museum, Nanzenji and Mizuokaku. The inside of the zoo is not wide, but I was not particularly dissatisfied. Although I think that it is not tiring even if I go with my family, I do not know whether I go by car and have a parking lot. There was a bicycle parking lot.
It is a quiet and compact zoo.

The entrance fee is also cheap, and it is fun to have animals that small children can touch. Statues and gorillas are spectacular and adults can enjoy it! !
Because there is no parking lot it is hard to find a parking lot nearby.

The facility is not big in size.

The facility is not big in size.

Major species such as giraffes, elephants, gorillas, and zebras are multi-headed for breeding purposes, so they are surprisingly suitable for children.
There are also several jaguars and red pandas for breeding.
There are several Iriomote wild cats in the breeding facility, but they are not open to the public and only can be seen.
Although there are multiple tigers, they are parents and children. My head is very big.

It was beautifully renovated. I feel it widely.
Although I went by bus, I did not know which way to head after I got off, it was a little hard.
You can see popular animals at the beginning and end even if you turn clockwise or reverse.
Vehicles that can ride infants in the center (Ferris wheel etc. 4)
There are lenders for strolls, but since there are only 16 so far, you should go ahead of time.
I bought lunch boxes such as rice balls near the entrance. It is also possible to bring in. Because there is a square and a bench, it seems that I can eat with a feeling of excursion.
There is a souvenir shop at the exit of the entrance of Heian Shrine. Children's must-have is essential.

For 600 yen we saw all kinds of animals (big cats are particularly impressive!). We watched them very closely and even during their snacks.

Small flat, I find that some cages are too small and some species are too much in the same habitat. All the same, the animals look healthy (exception: The only lion in the zoo is extremely old, he is lean and weak).

Good value for money, come in the afternoon (2-3 pm) to avoid the masses of schoolchildren!

If you want a reason to end it all, go and visit.
The enclosures were terrible. The Aninals were miserable and the zoo looked like a dystopian movie. My heart sank when i saw the Skin and bones of a lion lying lifelessly in its tiny pen.
Do not go here.

The renewal in the park is over and it has become beautiful.
It's not such a big zoo, but it will be visited many times.
Tigers walk over their heads, touch goats and sheep, and traditional mini-amusement parks
It is perfect for taking children.

I came to visit with my family.
Since junior high school students and below are free, it is from Otariwa Shiga, but I am enjoying coming four times a year!
There is a beasts corner in the garden through the entrance, and you can see it near the lions and panthers. Before going to the area with giraffe and flamingos, there is a square with playground, but those who came with a small child will be stuck here from animals, so be cautious. Lol
It seems that only Saturdays and Sundays are crowded, and many people visit on nursery schools, kindergartens, elementary school lower grades events on weekdays.

As I was close, I had never been there, but I remembered Asahiyama Zoo. You can see it slowly because it is not crowded above all. It is also good to show that the subway and the access are better, and that the Incline, Nanzenji Temple and tourist spots are close.

After the renewal, the atmosphere has changed considerably.
In a good sense.
There were many spaces to eat bento.
I haven't been there, but it looks like a beautiful restaurant? There was also.
Perhaps because of that, many visitors were crowded.

When I was little, I didn't have a very beautiful image, but it has become very beautiful! You can see powerful animals such as gorillas, elephants, and giraffes up close, and even adults can enjoy them.
