Animal Forest

About

A hands-on indoor animal space with reptiles, roaming farm animals and staff-guided encounters on Gwangalli’s sixth floor.

A lizard or snake may end up in your hands here, with staff guiding the encounter. 애니멀숲 is an indoor animal space on the sixth floor of the Badamaru building, where leafy branches spread across the ceiling and the animals, rather than displays, set the pace. Reptiles and dogs occupy the central zone; birds, horses, chickens, sheep and guinea pigs are among the animals in the side areas. Goats, ducks and chickens roam freely in one section, while the mini pigs are kept apart and can be approached on request. Ferrets are also brought close by staff, and animal snacks are sold by type. This is built around contact, not a quiet look from behind glass. Staff help visitors interact, and the mix of animals makes it an easy family outing or indoor date, especially if children are keen to meet them. There is a sea view mentioned by visitors, too, though the animals are the main event. Entry is ₩14,000 per person for 90 minutes; staying longer costs ₩1,000 for each additional 10 minutes. Snacks cost ₩2,000 per type. There are no reservations, so arrive ready to wait, particularly on weekends, when the rooms can feel crowded. The garage behind the building is free during your visit but may fill up; one visitor reported waiting around 10 minutes for a space. Children under 13 need a guardian, and pets are not allowed. Wash your hands before going in, and follow staff guidance around feeding and handling. One important caveat: some visitors have raised concerns about small enclosures and animal stress, and a smell has also been mentioned. If animal welfare is a deciding factor for you, that is worth weighing before you go.
