Yokohama Municipal Kanazawa Zoo

4.0

Located 12 minutes away by bus from the west exit of Keihin Electric Express Railway Kanazawa-bunko Station; get off at the “Natsuyamasakaue” stop. A municipal zoo located in Kanazawa Natural Park. Focusing primarily on rare herbivores animals, many animals found at no other zoo are kept here. The zoo has prepared spacious grounds for keeping its large herbivores, and you can take your time and enjoy watching them amidst beautiful natural environments. Time your visit right, and you can watch koalas eating eucalyptus leaves. There’s also a petting zoo where you can play with goats and sheep. The great grey kangaroo area, which lets visitors actually walk through it, is particularly popular.

This was a great visit. Got to pet a kangaroo. Neat animals and exhibits. Bus could have taken us a little closer to gate, that was a little walk, but other than that, it was great.
Decent zoo, dont miss the roller park!

Our family visited this zoo and it is an enjoyable, easy day out with kids. The zoo is situated on a hill, so the walk through the zoo is pleasant. (Stroller friendly) Not many big animals but it...
