Located in Hengchun City, the deer-themed ecological park "Deer Realm" is home to an adorable herd of sika deer. The open farm space allows visitors to get up close to Bambi, feed them, take photos, and more, delighting animal-loving netizens and earning it the nickname "Taiwan’s version of Nara."

In the past, sika deer were nearly driven to extinction due to overhunting, but in recent years, thanks to conservation efforts by the Kenting National Park Headquarters, many wild sika deer can now be spotted within the national park. "Deer Realm" also breeds sika deer on its own farm, allowing visitors to have zero-distance interactions and feed the deer.

On the soft lawns, sika deer of various sizes can be seen leisurely roaming. If you want to try feeding them, you can purchase carrots or special fodder. Watching the deer approach cutely for food is simply adorable.
Reminder: Deer are easily startled, so please do not chase or make loud noises. (Photo / i_am_nnnnnn)
