Toyohashi Zoo and Botanical Park features
a zoo in a laid-back savanna-style with open-air
areas and life-like animal displays, such
as leaping Polar Bears.
A Monet garden has been constructed in the
botanical park, complete with displays of
the same water lilies, weeping willows, and
wisteria plants that inspired Claude Monet’s
famous paintings. The park gained historical
status when, in 1996, these Monet water lilies
were first brought to Japan to celebrate the
park’s opening. The area is perfect for those
who love taking photos or painting.
The museum features an Anatosaurus skeleton
display, while a Ferris wheel and rollercoaster
add to the full atmosphere of an amusement
park. |
