Here’s the map↓
The address is 15-14 Uchide Kozuchicho, Ashiya City, Hyogo Prefecture.
↑Looking into the park through the fence… the cage part of the “monkey cage” is gone!!
↑Uchide Park back when the cage was still there. Comparing the photos, you can see that the cage section has been removed, leaving only the concrete part at the back.
It had already been announced that the “monkey cage” would be removed and turned into a monument reusing part of the fence, but now that it’s actually gone, it still feels a little sad…
↑The construction work could also be faintly seen through the fence from the grounds of the neighboring “Uchide Education and Culture Center” around the bicycle parking area.
↑Renovation work has also been decided for the “Uchide Education and Culture Center.” It was announced that the “Ashiya City Library Uchide Branch” inside the center will be closed from Friday, September 1 to Sunday, March 31 next year.
