About Himeji Central Park

Experience the ultimate family adventure at Himeji Central Park, where a thrilling drive-through safari meets an exciting amusement park. Get up close to majestic lions, tigers, and giraffes from your own car before enjoying roller coasters and seasonal attractions like the summer pool or winter ice park. It is the perfect full-day escape for animal lovers and thrill-seekers visiting the Hyogo region.

Local Legends & Stories

While not steeped in ancient mythology, Himeji Central Park holds a special place in the hearts of Kansai locals as a nostalgic multi-generational retreat where parents who visited in the 1980s now bring their own children to experience the same iconic safari and Ferris wheel.

Must Do Experiences

  • Embark on the drive-through safari to see lions, tigers, and elephants roaming freely just inches from your vehicle windows.

  • Hand-feed gentle herbivores like giraffes and deer in the designated interactive animal zones.

  • Ride the thrilling roller coasters and enjoy panoramic views of the park from the iconic Ferris wheel.

  • Cool off in the splash pool during summer or glide around the ice park in winter, both included in your admission.

Hidden Gems

  • The safari bus offers a guided perspective and unique photo angles that you might miss while driving your own rental car through the enclosures.

  • Visit the amusement park rides right before closing time, as the queues for the Ferris wheel and roller coasters drop significantly in the late afternoon.

  • Keep an eye out for the capybara hot springs during the colder months, a heartwarming and highly photogenic local favorite.

What Makes it Special

  • It seamlessly blends a sprawling African-style safari with a classic Japanese amusement park, offering two distinct worlds in one convenient location.

  • The inclusion of seasonal attractions like the summer water park and winter ice rink means your ticket provides year-round entertainment without hidden add-on costs.

  • The drive-through safari allows for an intimate, climate-controlled wildlife experience that is especially comfortable for families with young children or elderly members.

Perfect Timing

When to visit for the best experience

The best time to visit is on a weekday morning during the mild spring or autumn months to avoid peak crowds and enjoy comfortable weather for walking around the amusement park. Animals are generally most active in the cooler morning hours right after the 10:00 AM opening, making it the ideal time for your safari drive.

Photography Guide

Capture the perfect shots

  • Use a polarizing filter on your camera or smartphone lens to reduce glare and reflections when shooting animals through your car windows during the safari.

  • The Ferris wheel offers the best elevated vantage points for wide-angle shots of the entire park and the surrounding Hyogo mountains, especially during the golden hour before closing.

  • Capture close-up portraits of the giraffes and deer during the feeding sessions, ensuring your flash is turned off to avoid startling the animals.

Cultural Etiquette

Respect local customs and traditions

Japanese theme parks emphasize cleanliness and order, so please dispose of your trash in the designated bins or take it back to your car. When feeding the animals, strictly follow the staff's instructions and only use the provided food to ensure the health and safety of the wildlife.

Special Events & Experiences

Enhanced experiences and seasonal highlights

  • Summer Splash Festival features extended access to the massive outdoor pool area with water slides and wave pools included in your ticket.

  • Winter Ice Park transforms a section of the park into a festive ice-skating wonderland, perfect for cooling off and enjoying seasonal illuminations.

  • Spring and Autumn animal feeding shows and special keeper talks offer unique insights into the daily lives and diets of the park's resident wildlife.

Important Guidelines & Safety

Essential safety information and guidelines

  • Never roll down your car windows, open your doors, or exit your vehicle while driving through the carnivore and predator enclosures in the safari zone.

  • Supervise young children closely near the animal feeding areas and water attractions to prevent accidental falls or unwanted animal interactions.

  • Stay hydrated and utilize the shaded rest areas, especially during the hot and humid Japanese summer months when the pool area is open.
