Vitality. Ehime Prefectural Tobe Zoo

This time, we will introduce another great place in Shikoku, which is Ehime Prefectural Zoo. However, if you want to go to Ehime Prefectural Zoo from Takamatsu, you must first take the JR from Takamatsu to Matsuyama (about 2 hours). We chose to go to Songshan first. Although it takes a little time, it is worth it. We went to this zoo with a purpose, the main one being to visit a polar bear. He was bred by hand and still exists. He is now 25 years old and his name is Peace. He is loved by the locals. The average lifespan of a polar bear is 25 to 30 years, and although Peace is in his twilight years, he is full of energy and often plays with his ice cream cones, which is fun. In addition to Peace, you can also see beautiful scenery/red leaves and various small animals in the park along the way. If you are hungry, visitors can also eat something in a restaurant in the park before strolling around. The food in the restaurant is also of quite high quality. It is also a great choice for travel or family trip, so you may want to consider it. I hope you like my sharing, thank you!
