# Outdoor goat feeding at Hamjjirang Tojjirang, a Gwangju animal café - By Jiwoo Han (https://superchart.com/en/@pocheon-early-supper/) - Written Sep 16, 2026 - Local places › Things to do › Gwangju, Gyeonggi - Sponsored: This post was written with support from the business for a visit, but the experience and impressions are the writer's own. - English edition: https://superchart.com/en/@pocheon-early-supper/hamjji-tojji-animal-cafe-gwangju-outdoor-feeding/ - Also in: [한국어](https://superchart.com/ko/@pocheon-early-supper/hamjji-tojji-animal-cafe-gwangju-outdoor-feeding/index.md) ## In short Hamjjirang Tojjirang Animal Experience Café is an animal petting café on Docheok-ro in Docheok-myeon, Gwangju, Gyeonggi-do, with an open pasture beside a chestnut forest and a river where you can feed goats, sheep, piglets, ducks and rabbits. A single ticket costs 12,000 won and includes either a drink or a bag of animal feed, and there is no time limit, so we wandered slowly with our child. Between the outdoor feeding, the indoor observation zone, a bowl of Hangang ramen and the 10,000 won bonding zone, one visit to Hamjjirang Tojjirang filled a whole weekend day. ## Good to know - **Address**: 1st floor, 883-3 Docheok-ro, Docheok-myeon, Gwangju-si, Gyeonggi-do - **Hours**: Weekdays 12:00–17:00 / Weekends and public holidays 10:00–18:00 (last entry 1 hour before closing) - **Admission**: 12,000 won per person (choose either a drink or animal feed for the experience) - **Bonding zone**: 10,000 won for 1 adult + 1 child - **Time limit**: None - **Infants**: Free entry for babies 12 months and under (proof of age required) - **Reservations**: Required on Saturdays, Sundays and public holidays - **Price reference**: ₩12,000 ≈ $8.9 · ₩10,000 ≈ $7.4 (2026-09-15) *as written by the visitor on Sep 16, 2026* The weather's been so gorgeous lately! On weekends when I'm racking my brain over where to take my kid, I find myself looking for outdoor spots instead of stuffy indoor ones. Last weekend, wanting to make a special memory for my child, I spent ages searching for things to do with kids in Gwangju, Gyeonggi, and came across an experience space in Docheok-myeon. I'd heard it had lots of cute animals kids love plus amazing scenery, so we set off excited hahaha. ## Where is Hamjjirang Tojjirang, and how much is admission? Hamjjirang Tojjirang Animal Experience Café is located at 883-3 Docheok-ro, Docheok-myeon, Gwangju-si, Gyeonggi-do, 1st floor. Admission is ₩12,000 per person, and you can choose either a drink or animal feed. - Address: 883-3 Docheok-ro, Docheok-myeon, Gwangju-si, Gyeonggi-do, 1st floor, South Korea - Hours: Weekdays 12:00–17:00 / Weekends and holidays 10:00–18:00 (last entry 1 hour before closing) - Admission: ₩12,000 per person (choose one of drink or animal feed) - Other notes: no time limit on your visit, free entry for infants 12 months and under (ID verification required), reservations required on Saturdays, Sundays and holidays Visiting in person, I really loved that we could look around at our own pace without feeling rushed. Since weekends and holidays run on a reservation system, visitors weren't all crowding in at once, which made parking and getting around much more relaxed hahaha. ![Entrance to the Hamjjirang Tojjirang animal experience café](https://img.superchart.com/images/hamjji-tojji-animal-cafe-gwangju-outdoor-feeding/hamjji-tojji-animal-cafe-gwangju-outdoor-feeding-01-1uplm-900.webp) ## Outdoor feeding at Hamjjirang Tojjirang: goats, sheep, piglets, ducks and rabbits After walking into the Hamjjirang Tojjirang building and getting our single admission tickets, they handed us each a cute feed bucket filled with fresh carrots and green grass. My kid's eyes were already sparkling. Carrying our feed buckets out into the outdoor space, goats, sheep, a piglet, ducks and rabbits all came out to greet us happily hahaha. ![Animals waiting for feeding time in the outdoor pasture area](https://img.superchart.com/images/hamjji-tojji-animal-cafe-gwangju-outdoor-feeding/hamjji-tojji-animal-cafe-gwangju-outdoor-feeding-02-19mk6-900.webp) ![A child holding a feed bucket with carrots and grass](https://img.superchart.com/images/hamjji-tojji-animal-cafe-gwangju-outdoor-feeding/hamjji-tojji-animal-cafe-gwangju-outdoor-feeding-03-1fep4-900.webp) ![Outdoor experience area with goats and sheep being fed](https://img.superchart.com/images/hamjji-tojji-animal-cafe-gwangju-outdoor-feeding/hamjji-tojji-animal-cafe-gwangju-outdoor-feeding-04-yim6u-900.webp) Seeing my child stand this close, make eye contact, and feed the animals directly made her so happy that even I felt proud watching!! ![A child feeding an animal while making eye contact](https://img.superchart.com/images/hamjji-tojji-animal-cafe-gwangju-outdoor-feeding/hamjji-tojji-animal-cafe-gwangju-outdoor-feeding-05-1xs5q-900.webp) ## Chestnut forest, riverside and parasol seats for a break Above all, the surroundings at Hamjjirang Tojjirang were really impressive. Dense chestnut trees encircle the place, and a gently flowing river stretches out right beside it — the scenery was stunning. ![Outdoor animal experience area surrounded by chestnut forest and riverside](https://img.superchart.com/images/hamjji-tojji-animal-cafe-gwangju-outdoor-feeding/hamjji-tojji-animal-cafe-gwangju-outdoor-feeding-06-tkh4i-1200.webp) Parents can sit under cool parasols with a cup of coffee and safely watch their kids play, which made for a really comfortable rest. ![Outdoor rest seating with parasols](https://img.superchart.com/images/hamjji-tojji-animal-cafe-gwangju-outdoor-feeding/hamjji-tojji-animal-cafe-gwangju-outdoor-feeding-07-vgde3-900.webp) Places with lots of animals gathered together often have a distinct smell that makes it hard to stay long. But here, the outdoor space seemed to be managed hygienically, so the air was clean and pleasant the whole time we were there!! ![Cleanly maintained outdoor pasture area for the animals](https://img.superchart.com/images/hamjji-tojji-animal-cafe-gwangju-outdoor-feeding/hamjji-tojji-animal-cafe-gwangju-outdoor-feeding-08-bvfek-900.webp) ![A family looking around the outdoor experience area](https://img.superchart.com/images/hamjji-tojji-animal-cafe-gwangju-outdoor-feeding/hamjji-tojji-animal-cafe-gwangju-outdoor-feeding-09-1spwy-900.webp) ## What animals are in the indoor observation zone? Stepping into the Hamjjirang Tojjirang indoor observation zone, there were parrots, guinea pigs, hamsters, frogs and lizards — all kinds of creatures we usually only see in books. My child got completely absorbed watching them, losing track of time. ![Small animal enclosures in the indoor observation zone](https://img.superchart.com/images/hamjji-tojji-animal-cafe-gwangju-outdoor-feeding/hamjji-tojji-animal-cafe-gwangju-outdoor-feeding-10-10psg-900.webp) ![A child peering into the observation zone at the animals](https://img.superchart.com/images/hamjji-tojji-animal-cafe-gwangju-outdoor-feeding/hamjji-tojji-animal-cafe-gwangju-outdoor-feeding-11-4dmv2-900.webp) ![A parrot in the indoor observation zone](https://img.superchart.com/images/hamjji-tojji-animal-cafe-gwangju-outdoor-feeding/hamjji-tojji-animal-cafe-gwangju-outdoor-feeding-12-zirpu-900.webp) ![An enclosure with guinea pigs and hamsters in the observation zone](https://img.superchart.com/images/hamjji-tojji-animal-cafe-gwangju-outdoor-feeding/hamjji-tojji-animal-cafe-gwangju-outdoor-feeding-13-lthuv-900.webp) ![Frogs and lizards in the indoor observation zone](https://img.superchart.com/images/hamjji-tojji-animal-cafe-gwangju-outdoor-feeding/hamjji-tojji-animal-cafe-gwangju-outdoor-feeding-14-fjubx-900.webp) ### Hangang ramen: a quick meal at the animal café By the time we got hungry after playing for a while, the café had everything set up for us to cook our own Hangang ramen (river-style instant ramen), which was perfect for a quick meal. ![Cooking area for self-cooked Hangang ramen](https://img.superchart.com/images/hamjji-tojji-animal-cafe-gwangju-outdoor-feeding/hamjji-tojji-animal-cafe-gwangju-outdoor-feeding-15-1hnjp-900.webp) ![A finished bowl of Hangang ramen](https://img.superchart.com/images/hamjji-tojji-animal-cafe-gwangju-outdoor-feeding/hamjji-tojji-animal-cafe-gwangju-outdoor-feeding-16-1bpd6-900.webp) ## The 10,000 won bonding zone: one-on-one with a rabbit Of everything, what completely won our family over was, without a doubt, the bonding zone!! Open to one adult and one child together, this ₩10,000 experience takes place in a small, cozy space where you get to deeply connect with a gentle rabbit. Once inside, the rabbit was so gentle and friendly toward people that it showed no fear at all. It followed us around just like a sweet little puppy, which had us laughing hahaha. ![A friendly rabbit following someone inside the bonding zone](https://img.superchart.com/images/hamjji-tojji-animal-cafe-gwangju-outdoor-feeding/hamjji-tojji-animal-cafe-gwangju-outdoor-feeding-17-1box2-900.webp) ![The cozy indoor space of the bonding zone](https://img.superchart.com/images/hamjji-tojji-animal-cafe-gwangju-outdoor-feeding/hamjji-tojji-animal-cafe-gwangju-outdoor-feeding-18-1we3p-724.webp) Since my child has never had a pet at home, she seemed a little nervous at first and only gently poked the rabbit's back with a fingertip. ![A child gently touching the rabbit's back with a fingertip](https://img.superchart.com/images/hamjji-tojji-animal-cafe-gwangju-outdoor-feeding/hamjji-tojji-animal-cafe-gwangju-outdoor-feeding-19-1prht-900.webp) But after a little while, as the rabbit stayed calm and patiently waited, she seemed to gather her courage and gently stroked its back with her whole palm. ![Stroking the rabbit's back with an open palm](https://img.superchart.com/images/hamjji-tojji-animal-cafe-gwangju-outdoor-feeding/hamjji-tojji-animal-cafe-gwangju-outdoor-feeding-20-1u287-900.webp) ![A child sitting together with the rabbit in the bonding zone](https://img.superchart.com/images/hamjji-tojji-animal-cafe-gwangju-outdoor-feeding/hamjji-tojji-animal-cafe-gwangju-outdoor-feeding-21-11kq5-900.webp) The bright smile that spread across my child's face as she felt that warmth and connection is something I still can't forget. ![A child smiling while bonding with the rabbit](https://img.superchart.com/images/hamjji-tojji-animal-cafe-gwangju-outdoor-feeding/hamjji-tojji-animal-cafe-gwangju-outdoor-feeding-22-1tq0c-900.webp) For kids who haven't had many chances to touch animals, this place offers such a warm and wondrous experience — I really want to recommend it to the parenting moms around me who ask about things to do with kids in Gwangju. ![A commemorative photo after finishing the animal experience](https://img.superchart.com/images/hamjji-tojji-animal-cafe-gwangju-outdoor-feeding/hamjji-tojji-animal-cafe-gwangju-outdoor-feeding-23-17b2x-745.webp) Being able to connect with the animals at a leisurely pace, with no time limit, amid such natural scenery, Hamjjirang Tojjirang truly earns its place among things to do with kids in Gwangju, and gave both my child and me a genuinely happy day. ![A weekend outing spent at the nature-filled animal experience café](https://img.superchart.com/images/hamjji-tojji-animal-cafe-gwangju-outdoor-feeding/hamjji-tojji-animal-cafe-gwangju-outdoor-feeding-24-78v1d-900.webp) ## Where it is - Hamjjirang Tojjirang Animal Experience Café (햄찌랑토찌랑 동물체험카페) - 883-3 Docheok-ro, Docheok-myeon, Gwangju-si, Gyeonggi-do, 1st floor, South Korea - 경기도 광주시 도척면 도척로 883-3 1층 - 37.2891178, 127.3106851 - Google Maps: https://www.google.com/maps/search/%ED%96%84%EC%B0%8C%EB%9E%91%ED%86%A0%EC%B0%8C%EB%9E%91%20%EB%8F%99%EB%AC%BC%EC%B2%B4%ED%97%98%EC%B9%B4%ED%8E%98/@37.2891178,127.3106851,17z --- Superchart · https://superchart.com/en/@pocheon-early-supper/hamjji-tojji-animal-cafe-gwangju-outdoor-feeding/ · https://superchart.com/llms.txt
