淡路ファームパーク, Agricultural zoo in Minamiawaji, Japan.
Awaji Farm Park is a recreation and education facility that combines animals and farming activities in Minamiawaji. The property includes separate animal areas for koalas, rabbits, and guinea pigs alongside fields for vegetable cultivation and craft workshops.
The park was created as part of Japan's development of new recreational facilities that combine education with conservation. This establishment reflects the growing interest in giving people access to farming and animal care experiences.
The park runs seasonal programs where visitors can harvest vegetables and make cheese, connecting them directly with local farming practices. These hands-on activities show how the region's agricultural traditions are still part of everyday life.
The park is walkable and well-positioned on Awaji Island, with ample parking available on site. Visitors should bring comfortable clothing for outdoor activities, especially if planning to participate in the farming programs.
The park houses a specialized koala exhibit, making it one of the few places in Japan where visitors can see these marsupials. These Australian animals are rarely found in Japanese facilities, making the park a special destination for wildlife enthusiasts.
