Takasakiyama Natural Zoo

Located on the border of Oita City and Beppu City along Route 10. This is a zoo, but is not a zoo? The attraction of “Takasakiyama Natural Zoo” is that the monkeys come close to visitors in their natural habitat without cages. The staff feeds over 1,200 wild monkeys and has built a trusting relationship with them. The Takasakiyama Natural Zoo is one of the most popular tourist attractions in Kyushu, where nature and humans can coexist, including factional fights led by the boss monkeys and general elections for good-looking monkeys. 20 minutes by car from GRANXIA Beppu Kannawa.
