Shiga Prefectural Livestock Technology Promotion Center
About 16 minutes from the Youkaichi Interchange off the Meishin Expressway via the National Route 421 and 307, this Prefectural Livestock Research and Testing Center develops better ways for animal husbandry and improved ways of cultivating the prefecture’s specialty, Omi-gyu beef and Omi-shamo chickens. On this expansive property, sheep, rabbits and ponies are allowed to roam free but there is a petting zoo where visitors can interact with some of the animals. In the springtime, the center hosts sheep shearing workshops and in the summer, they host wool crafts classes.
