Home to about 120 species and 1,600 animals
- Adventure World is a place in Shirahama Town, Wakayama Prefecture, on the Kii Peninsula, where rich and diverse life flourishes, and you can truly experience the beauty of life. Here, about 120 species and 1,600 animals from all over the world – land, sea, and sky – live together with us as our partners. Inspired by the idea of 'observing life, asking questions, and discovering the beauty of life,' we create experiences that touch your heart through edutainment. We really value those 'moments' when all our visitors get to experience the 'beauty of life' through love, connection, and possibilities. We hope that the insights you gain from all the wonder and excitement here will eventually lead to a 'world where everyone shines.' Adventure World will keep on challenging itself!
