Easy to come in. There were no lines at around 10am. Food inside was yummy. Lots of renovation going on at the moment, though, but overall it was a very good experience.
If you are an animal lover visiting Nagoya, a trip to Higashiyama Zoo is an absolute must! It offers incredible value, and you're guaranteed an amazing, animal-filled day. We can't wait to come back!
Higashiyama zoo was so vast and had a lot of entertaining info about animals. botanical garden was also magical. got to see the sunset at the sky tower. redemption was easy, just scan the barcode to enter. totally recommend this activity! fun and convenient!
Had an awesome experience here! Our first time to see a rhino too! The place is huge and lots of activities to do.
The zoo is divided into two areas. There are many animals in the zoo and each animal is very energetic and beautiful. It is worth the money to go to the zoo. There are many plants I have never seen in the botanical garden and there is a building of Shirakawa-go. It is the best zoo I have been to so far.
In fact, the price is not much different, but it is still good to save the time of queuing and talking to each other. The zoo is great, but those with strollers have to go up to the tower and have to wait in a queue for the elevator. The amusement park is suitable for both big and small children. Individual or one-day passes can be purchased. It is a very child-friendly environment.
It is a great place for children to visit. The children were happy to see many animals. very nice place
Convenient transportation, about a five-minute walk from Dongshan Park Station. There are many types of animals, the food in the park's restaurant is cheap and of good quality, and there are also snack food trucks and many places to rest, making it very suitable for a family to enjoy a day.
