Hiroshima City Asa Zoological Park

Hiroshima City Asa Zoological Park is located in Asa North District, Hiroshima City, Hiroshima Prefecture, Japan. Established in 1971, it is one of the most popular zoos in Hiroshima. Covering a vast area, it houses a wide variety of animals including giraffes, African elephants, red pandas, tigers, and more. With its extensive facilities, it is a great place for both children and adults to visit and learn about animals.

Over the years, Hiroshima City Asa Zoological Park has developed rapidly, continuously enriching its facilities for close-up animal encounters. In 2010, the "Lion Glass House" was opened to the public, allowing visitors to observe lions’ every move through glass panels. In the highly popular PICHIKU Park, visitors can not only get up close with animals such as goats, sheep, and guinea pigs, but also enjoy pony rides on Saturdays, Sundays, and other holidays—a big hit with children. The zoo is committed not only to providing visitors with a comfortable environment for viewing animals but also collaborates with other zoos to protect endangered wildlife species. To date, it has achieved major breeding successes with species such as the giant salamander, black rhinoceros, and zebra.
