Choshikei Monkey Park

The Choshikei Monkey Park (銚子渓お猿の国, Chōshikei Osarunokuni) on Shodoshima Island offers a unique wildlife experience in the heart of the mountains. Located near a scenic ravine along the Shodoshima Skyline road, the park is home to around 500 Japanese macaques that roam freely alongside a few peacocks. Visitors can stroll through the park, observe the monkeys up close, or feed them from a special caged room, offering a playful twist where humans become the ones on display.

In addition to the free-roaming monkeys, the park hosts an entertaining monkey show twice a day. For those seeking stunning views, a 15-minute walk from the park leads to an observation deck overlooking Shodoshima and the beautiful Seto Inland Sea. It's a perfect destination for animal lovers and nature enthusiasts alike.
