Little Prince Tangerine Field
The Little Prince tells the story of a little prince who travels across worlds and planets, meeting new people and experiencing new adventures. At Little Prince Tangerine Field cafe, which is inspired by the book, you can have your own Little Prince adventure surrounded by fresh tangerines and cute animal critters that you can feed.

This blend of nature with sophistication makes the cafe feel classy yet cosy, and the exposed lightbulbs hanging from the ceiling harkens back to the starry space that the Little Prince traverses in his adventures.

The cafe has an outdoor area with rattan lounge chairs surrounded by tropical trees, which makes it feel like a tropical paradise. All you need now is some nice sunglasses and a fancy cocktail.

While the cafe requires every guest above 2 years old to buy a drink for entry, their drinks are so unique that it wouldn’t even feel like a rule. We recommend their signature Tangerine Juice (KRW8,000, ~USD5.80), or any of their tangerine-based drinks, since they have access to fresh tangerines all the time.
Buying the entrance drink also gives you access to the animal farm situated at the back of the cafe as well, so it’s definitely money well-spent.

Little Prince Tangerine Farm offers an all-you-can-pick-and-eat tangerine experience.

Do note that you must eat or bring home the tangerines you pick, as throwing them away is not allowed.

The tangerine experience is available all year round. But when it’s cold outside, from October to March, the activity takes place at a greenhouse nearby instead of the outdoor tangerine garden itself.

Netizens recommend picking the smaller tangerines because they tend to be sweeter, so pick wisely.
Animal farm to feed animals

Meet up to 11 species of adorable animals, from ducks to goats and alpacas, at the farm that you can access as you have bought a drink.

Some of the animals are in designated pens, while others are allowed to free roam, so keep your eyes peeled for these cuties.

You can feed these animals with feed provided by the Little Prince Tangerine Field for free, so go ahead and enjoy playing zookeeper to these precious animals for a day.
Note that some of the animals can be quite rough when they approach for food, so those with children or those who are jumpy should be careful.
