Izu Shaboten Zoo is a quirky and unique attraction located at the foot of Mt. Omuro in Shizuoka, Japan. This zoo is not your average animal park - it's also home to a cactus greenhouse with over 1,500 types of succulents from around the world. Visitors can get up close and personal with a variety of animals, including capybaras, kangaroos, peacocks, squirrel monkeys, and sloths. Don't miss out on trying some unique foods like green cactus curry, cactus burgers, and cactus ice cream while exploring this fun and interactive zoo!
