Nara Ikimono Museum
The Nara Ikimono Museum is an experiential museum based on the concept of "observing living things from the same perspective and up close." It primarily features reptiles such as lizards and chameleons, and also showcases a variety of other creatures including fish and amphibians. The museum uses unique lighting and artistic design to highlight the colors and personalities of the animals, allowing you to go beyond simply "looking at cute things" and instead closely observe the unique personality and behavior of each creature, finding your own favorite.
If you choose the two-museum combo ticket, you can also visit the Nara Kingyo Museum , an immersive exhibition space created with goldfish and light art, perfect for taking photos. You can also experience two completely different exhibition styles at the same time: "close observation of diverse creatures" and "goldfish exhibition with an artistic atmosphere," making your itinerary more comprehensive.
Nosonoso Zone: Upon entering the NARA IKIMONO MUSEUM, you will be greeted by various "slow-moving" crawling creatures. Here, you can not only interact with these creatures up close, but also take photos with the reptilian ancestors—dinosaurs—and a giant snake sculpture that is about 15 meters long.
Shito Shito Zone (しとしと区): Like a hidden paradise deep in the jungle, this place showcases "Tree of Life," a large-scale driftwood art piece created by artist GA☆KYO. Various creatures coexist in the spherical space, and a sofa area is also provided, allowing you to slowly appreciate the wondrous ecology in a tranquil and healing atmosphere.
Puru Puru Zone (ぷるぷる区): A place where many cute and unique creatures gather, and the longer you look at them, the more fascinated you become. Among the diverse and distinctive animals, you might even find your own "favorite".
Kara Kara Zone (からから区): A zone simulating a dry desert environment, showcasing reptiles that live in arid regions. Through comparisons between dinosaur sculptures and modern reptiles, you'll discover the fascinating connection between these "little dinosaurs" and their ancient ancestors.
Kowa Kowa Zone (こわこわ区): A collection of creatures that appear frightening, possessing venom or pincers. Upon closer inspection, you'll discover that they actually possess unique beauty and amazing abilities they've evolved for survival.
