Playing with Capybara

Harajuku is a wonderful place where you can find many unique stores. My friend and I coincidentally stumbled upon a Zoo Cafe (動物園カフェ) a few weeks ago. Unlike cat cafe, dog cafe, and owl cafe which are common to be found in Japan, this cafe provides animals that you can’t see easily. There are small monkeys, hedgehogs, hamsters, meerkats, fennec, ferret, and even capybara! The entrance fee is 1500 JPY (incl. drink) for 30 minutes and we can play with all of the animals. We can also buy additional animal food to feed to the animals. My friend and I loves capybara the most. It is very cooperative that when we give our palms, it would calmly put his hand on top of it. So cute! This place is highly recommended.
