Travelogue 🇯🇵 Japan #15: Owl Cafe
▶️ Japan is so full of artificial anything that people have lost sight of nature. But they do like to keep nature in a small, controlled space, just like a bonsai tree (=Japanese miniature tree).
There's a variety of animal cafes, and cat cafes are just for beginners. You may find a puppy (=baby dog) cafe, a bird cafe, a hedgehog (=animal with spikes) cafe, a snake cafe, a penguin cafe and also cafes that house (=keep, are home to) different animals together. And then there are the owl cafes.
Behind each owl there is some information, most importantly if you can cuddle (=touch sb to show you like them) them or not. Visitors are given small pieces of raw fish that they can feed the owls with.
📍Tokyo, Japan
