Zoorasia
The Yokohama Zoological Garden" "ZOORASIA" "opened in 1999 is a unique zoo that works with as few fences as possible so that visitors can observe the animals in an environment similar to their natural habitat. The zoo is therefore one of the zoological gardens of Japan with the greatest focus on animal husbandry as appropriate.
Notice
Reopened June 11th, though some facilities remain closed. Check the official website for details.
The zoo is divided into areas with different climatic zones, such as an Asian tropical forest, sub-arctic forest, Amazon jungle, Japanese landscape and African tropical rainforest. There is also a grass park and the "" Wanpaku forest "" with play equipment for the children.
In addition, the zoo includes the Yokohama Breeding Center, a closed facility that was founded with the aim of researching wild animals and effectively contributing to the conservation of rare species.
