The farm is well-maintained and beautifully landscaped with Japanese-style scenery, making it perfect for photos. Visitors can experience feeding sika deer, alpacas, capybaras, wallabies, miniature deer, agoutis, tortoises, and more. Recently, the farm has introduced adorable Valais Blacknose sheep and the super cute, slow-moving, and lazy-looking sloths! Admission requires a ticket, and visitors can exchange their ticket stubs for a small snack like red bean cakes, scallion pancakes, or egg waffles.
