Here you'll find all of Australia's star animals you can imagine, with animal feeding and shows throughout the day. You can have close encounters with cuddly koalas and adorably silly kangaroos.

The zoo here is very interesting. In the animal show area, there are no barriers - visitors stand right next to the hosts and interact with the animals, which feels great. During one segment, they invited a visitor up, asked him to close his eyes, and placed a python on him from a box behind. His expression when he opened his eyes was priceless - the young boy was scared at first but quickly calmed down and then enjoyed the python slowly coiling around him. Yumi was also excited later and went to touch the snake.

The second floor is the koala area, with a cafe nearby and some seating where everyone rests while waiting to see the koalas.
