Encounter Penguin Walk at Asahiyama Zoo

In winter, you can see the adorable penguin walk at Asahiyama Zoo. You can watch them waddle close up. The daily walk times are 11:00 and 14:30, don't miss it! Additionally, there are many other cute animals in the zoo! This time, I saw a hippo blowing bubbles while sleeping. In the lion area, every cat behaves like a big cat, even rolling over and folding their paws. The wolves, on the other hand, sleep like pet dogs at home. Many online reviews say that the zoo is too small and the animals exhibit stereotypical behaviors. However, after visiting, I found that the zoo has improved a lot. Many areas are being renovated and expanded. There is a direct bus from Asahikawa city center, costing 500 yen per person, which is very convenient!
