Nagoya: Higashiyama Zoo and Botanical Gardens Ticket

Must-visit spots in Nagoya
Higashiyama Zoo and Botanical Gardens

Nagoya Higashiyama Zoo and Botanical Garden is a special place where you can enjoy animals, nature, and views. There are about 450 species of animals, including Asian elephants, koalas, red pandas, and Nishi-gorillas, so you can meet various animals up close. In addition, the botanical garden displays a whopping 7,000 species of plants, so you can enjoy beautiful scenery in all four seasons, such as cherry blossoms in spring and autumn foliage in fall. In addition, you can see tropical and subtropical plants all year round in the old greenhouse, which is designated as a nationally important cultural property.

Higashiyama Sky Tower

Higashiyama Sky Tower is an observation tower located in the Higashiyama Zoo and Botanical Gardens. It is 134 meters above ground, but the tower itself is on a hill 80 meters above sea level, so you can actually look down on Nagoya from a whopping 214 meters. If the weather is good, you can see the magnificent view of Mt. Ontake and the Suzuka Mountains, so I highly recommend visiting.
