A cage-free zoo!? A relaxing trip to Noichi Zoo, where you can experience nature

#AbsolutelyFreeTravel

Kochi Prefectural Noichi Zoo, located in Konan City, Kochi Prefecture, is a unique zoo known as a "cageless zoo" that lives in harmony with nature. 🐾
More than 100 species of animals live freely on its vast 199,000-square-meter grounds. 🌳
The zoo is divided into sections such as the "Tropical Forest," "African-Australian Zone," and "Jungle Museum," recreating the animals' natural habitats.
The exhibits are separated by rocks and plants, minimizing the use of fences and cages, making you feel like you're in the wild. ✨
You can also encounter rare animals like Asian small-clawed otters, flamingos, and mandrills!
On the day I visited, the otter "Yoichi" was swimming energetically, and just watching him was soothing. 😊
You can spend a relaxing time watching the animals with your partner, or just stroll around quietly taking photos by yourself. 💑👤
You can also enjoy the seasonal flowers and wild birds, making this a place you'll want to visit again and again.
Access is approximately 30 minutes by car from Kochi Station. 🚗
Or approximately 20 minutes on foot from Noichi Station on the JR Dosan Line.
The city bus "Noichi Zoo Line" is also available. 🚌
Enjoy a relaxing journey surrounded by nature and animals.
Be sure to add Noichi Zoo to your next travel destination!
