Nasu Animal Kingdom is a constantly evolving zoo that has been open since 1998. Inheriting the spirit of the late, great, Mutsuhro animal kingdom, it values the natural relationship between animals and people. In recent years, the Pallas's cat has gained popularity, and a new breeding facility has opened, making it a hot topic. Through interactions with animals and shows, you can also learn about animal ecology and environmental issues. Why not spend a special time with animals in the magnificent nature of the Nasu Highlands?
