Nogeyama Zoological Gardens
#thingstodo It's free to enter the zoo. There's a variety of animals, including red pandas, chimpanzees, lions, birds, reptiles, bears, and giraffes, all well taken care of (maybe they could consider adding a fish collection though). Each cage is numbered, making it easy to navigate the zoo and see all the animals. There's a feeding time schedule each day where you can watch animals being fed while keepers provide information about them (you can check the schedule on their website). There's also a small animal show that requires reservation before entry. It's so much fun seeing the animals, making it a perfect place for a picnic.
