Japan Monkey Centre: Museum and Zoo for Nonhuman Primates

Our Mission: “A Window to Nature”. The Japan Monkey Centre (JMC) runs a unique zoo housing the world’s largest number of nonhuman primate species and attracts visitors from all over the world. Led by Kyoto University professors, JMC promotes research, education, conservation, welfare, and outreach for primates. One of the must-see exhibits at the JMC is Japanese macaques (also known as snow monkeys) at the Monkey Valley. They show the behavior of washing sweet potatoes and other food in a pond. You may also see other interesting behaviors like Saru-dango (monkey dumpling), tool use, and noise making with stones. In winter, they warm themselves by a real bonfire, which became well-known and cherished attraction of JMC. Other star attractions are "Wao Land" where you can enjoy a close encounter with free-ranging ring-tailed lemurs and "Monkey Scramble" where you can watch siamangs brachiating at a height of 15 meter.
