Kyoto City Zoo is one of the historical zoos in Japan, located in Sakyo Ward, the center of culture and history in Kyoto. Junior high school students and younger are free.
Since its opening in 1903, Kyoto City Zoo has been loved by local residents and tourists alike. Because it is located in the center of Kyoto, it is easy to access, and it is used as part of a tour of historical sights and as a place to spend a relaxing day with the family.


Various animals are exhibited in the park, from the African savannah to tropical rainforests and arctic landscapes, including elephants, lions, tigers, giraffes, jaguars, gorillas, chimpanzees, hippos, zebras, and penguins. You can observe all the animals together. In recent years, the museum has focused on exhibiting methods that make it easier to observe the ecology and natural behavior of animals, and has facilities that support the healthy lives of animals.


Kyoto City Zoo is not just a place to display animals, but also emphasizes education about animal protection and ecosystem conservation. Through special events and workshops, it conveys the importance of animals and the natural environment to visitors.


Kyoto City Zoo is an oasis in the middle of the city where you can feel nature through contact with animals. Its long history and efforts to protect the health and nature of the animals are highly rated by many visitors. When visiting Kyoto, I recommend this zoo as a spot worth visiting as well as a historical attraction.
