AlpsPark, Nature park and zoo in Matsumoto, Japan.
The park extends across northwestern hills of Matsumoto at 800 meters elevation, featuring a nature museum, observation platform, and animal enclosures.
The establishment of Alps Park in 1974 introduced a recreational space that combines natural landscapes with educational facilities for Matsumoto residents.
The park incorporates traditional Japanese garden elements with modern facilities, including spaces dedicated to cherry blossom viewing during spring season.
Visitors can access the park via the Alps Koen Line bus, with operating hours from 9:00 to 16:30 for the zoo and 9:00 to 17:00 for the museum.
A 630-meter roller slide called Dream Coaster follows the natural slopes of the hill, offering views of the Northern Japan Alps during the descent.
