Tennoji Zoo was a wonderful experience and one of the highlights of our Osaka trip. The star attraction for us was definitely the polar bear—it was amazing to see such a powerful and beautiful animal up close. The enclosure was spacious and offered great viewing opportunities. The zoo is easy to explore, family-friendly, and home to a good variety of animals from around the world. The grounds are well maintained, and we enjoyed spending several relaxing hours here. Highly recommended!
Zoo was easy to navigate and had many different animals to look at. The best part to the experience was that they also had an inside storage locker for bags and food carts for snacks for breaks after your walk. I went during May time so it was nice and warm.
We came here because it was near our accommodation, and for the price and size, the zoo is fantastic. Everyone, from middle schoolers to high schoolers, and even parents, was satisfied. I especially loved how they arranged it so you could see the animals from various angles and viewpoints, and it was great to see the hippos up close. Since we went in the morning, it seemed to be feeding time, so it was nice to see them actively eating and moving around. It was also a great experience to see polar bears and bats. Looking through my photo album, I took so many animal pictures that I felt like a safari documentary director. We made a reservation in advance, so we just scanned the QR code and entered without any waiting. I highly recommend this!
great zoo to visit while in Osaka. very affordable price. lots of different animals to see. it’s best to make a donation if you can for the animals to have better care. some animals look skinny and could benefit from more food.
Amazing zoo and for such a cheap price, too. Our kids aged 8 and 5 enjoyed it here a lot. Adults of any age who love animals and being around nature will also have a good time here. Highlight was definitely the red panda 😍
we came on a hot day so make sure to bring umbrella and apply sunblock. easy qr entry. the snack bar with the cheesedog and fries was yummy
Using the QR code for park entry is very convenient. This historical zoo allows us to get up close and personal with the animals. The polar bear was the most active I've ever seen, constantly playing with the plastic container in the water and loving to dive. It was hard to leave. The penguins there are also very cute, the giraffes are very elegant, and there's even an orangutan who likes to take off its blanket. There are also many different animals. A group of four adults and four middle school students walked around for three hours before leaving to rush to the next activity. It's really worth a visit for animal lovers.
Best bang for the bucks.. One of the most visited when you are in osaka. It's also just opposite of Shinsekai area.
Super fast with a QR code right away. The ticket booths had long lines, but we felt like we had fast-pass access and got right in! Plus, there were some discounts, which we really appreciated. 🥹 Price: Great value Convenience of booking with Klook: Super convenient Experience: Very good
There weren't too many people, and it was very spacious, making it very comfortable and great to be there with a child. Price: Great attractions for the price. Convenience of Klook booking: You can enter immediately with a QR code.
