Details

In the picturesque and resource-rich resort area of Nasu Highlands, there are many dairy farms and various tourist attractions. Among them, the interactive zoo "Nasu World Monkey Park" is definitely worth a visit, where you can encounter rare monkeys and various animals from around the world. The zoo mainly consists of three major areas: the "Interactive Square," the "Animal Theater," and the "Elephant Forest." In the "Interactive Square," you can have close encounters with precious and rare monkeys such as squirrel monkeys, ring-tailed lemurs, and lemurs, as well as various animals like macaws and bunnies. You can also interact closely with snakes and experience feeding the animals. In the "Animal Theater," three performances are held each day. You can enjoy spectacular shows performed by monkeys and other animals. There are performances featuring Japanese macaques on the horizontal bar and rings, as well as tufted capuchins demonstrating their cleverness in sorting trash. Additionally, cats and macaws also join in the fun. The animal performers are highly skilled, intelligent, and endearing, eliciting continuous applause and laughter from the audience. In the "Elephant Forest," you can take on the challenge of the "Elephant Ride" experience. There are two Asian elephants from Laos available for visitors to ride. It’s worth mentioning that if you make a reservation the day before, you can participate in the birthday celebration activity "HAPPY BIRTHDAY with Elephants." The elephants will ring bells to the tune of the birthday song for the birthday celebrant, and you can take photos with the elephants as a keepsake.
