[Kobe Oji Zoo] Pandas and a retro amusement park! A relaxing spot for families and couples to enjoy๐Ÿพ๐ŸŽก

#AbsolutelyFreeTrip "Oji Zoo" in Nada Ward, Kobe City is a nostalgic and heartwarming spot where a zoo and an amusement park are combinedโœจ Popular animals such as giant pandas (note the current exhibition status) and koalas are all gathered! When I actually visited, I was soothed by the relaxed appearance of the animals and spent time returning to my childhood in the retro amusement park๐ŸŽ ๐Ÿ’• The park is not too large and easy to walk around, so it is perfect for solo travelers. In spring, the cherry blossoms bloom in full bloom, making it a popular cherry blossom viewing spot๐ŸŒธ ๐ŸšƒAccess: ใƒปAbout 3 minutes on foot from Hankyu "Oji Koen Station" ใƒปEasy access, about 10 minutes on foot from JR "Nada Station"๐Ÿšถโ™€๏ธ ๐ŸŽฏTips: ใƒปAdmission is 600 yen for adults and free for elementary and junior high school students! Great for "absolutely free trips" ใƒปRelatively empty on weekdays, so you can take your time exploring ใƒปWe also recommend picnicking on the benches and grass in the park๐Ÿ™ You can relax watching the animals as a couple, or just relax and be healed by yourself. A great, cost-effective healing spot in Kobe that you can easily enjoy!

Kobe Oji Zoo is a zoo near residential area which are easily reached by Hankyu Line train and get off in Oji Station. We were in Kobe mid week and decided to head to the zoo to see Tan Tan the panda. There was no waiting to get in or to see the exhibits, there were a lot of school children on an excursion but other than that it was just about ours. Yes itโ€™s a little dated but who cares the animals are there to see. I loved that with some animals there was a chance to see where they slept incase they werenโ€™t out. It was an enjoyable day and if your visiting Kobe and looking for something to do this could be something. #givethanks #givethanks
