NASU WORLD MONKEY PARK
(那須ワールドモンキーパーク)!
To help you recall, in the previous series of zoos, we emphasized that you can get up close to the animals, but most of them you can't touch. Now, however, we want to introduce an animal park that you can interact with these cuties! Imagine a Japanese monkey cafe (can you imagine such a place?!), and double it!!

Petting Area (ふれあい広場)
In addition to the getting to pet rabbits and sheep, the stars of the petting area are the monkeys! Hyper monkeys jumping and climbing from one place to another like lemurs, squirrel monkeys, and even Japanese macaque (famous for being the monkeys in Aomori Prefecture's hot spring snow monkeys)! You can look at them from outside the fenced area, but going inside and interacting with all the animals is really fun and a once in a lifetime opportunity! To see a list of what animals you can interact with, check their website here.
Monkey Playhouse (サル劇場)
For those that love watching the amazing things animals can do, showing off how intelligent they actually are, you should visit the Monkey Theatre! Each monkey (and even a cute kitty) has their own personality and specialty in the performance, so you are sure to see different skills and performances.
Show times: 10:30, 1:00, 3:00
*Performance lasts approximately 30-40mins
