Awe-inspiring! Kyoto City Zoo, home to four elephants

Kyoto City Zoo "Elephant Forest" "Monkey World" Peacocks and emus in between Kyoto City Zoo is famous for being close to the animals. You can see the elephant area through an iron rope. You can even observe the wrinkles on their feet. On the way from the elephants to the monkey area, there are peacocks and emus. Peacocks enter their mating season around Golden Week, so males spread their beautiful feathers to appeal to females. I hope their love comes true. ■Kyoto City Zoo Address Okazaki Hoshoji-cho, Sakyo-ku, Kyoto City, Kyoto Prefecture ■Access 10 minutes walk from Higashiyama Station on the Tozai Subway Line 11 minutes by taxi from Hankyu Kyoto Kawaramachi (740 yen to 820 yen) *There is no parking lot exclusively for Kyoto City Zoo.
