I like everybody! Asahikawa City Let’s go to Asahiyama Zoo!

This is the country’s most popular zoo where the original ‘activity display’ was first introduced and put into effect. This ‘activity display’ allows one to observe the animals’ original behavior through a natural environment. For example, the swimming pattern of penguins can be observed through an underwater tunnel in the ‘Penguin Aquarium’. Also, the spectacular dive of the polar bears can be viewed from a semi-circular dome in the ‘Polar Bear Aquatic Park’. Furthermore, innovative exhibitions including feeding times will be announced beforehand so as to allow visitors to check out the animals during ‘Mogumogu time’. In addition, ‘Mogu Mogu Terrace’ is a restaurant located in the east gate that offers dishes made from local produce. In particular, the cute ‘Penguin walk’ that only occurs during the winter months when snow accumulates on the zoo grounds is a must-see. This is a unique zoo that attracts visitors, young and old.
