Kagawa Nakatado-gun Manno Cho Yoshino

This is a small park along the edges of the largest pond ever created as a reservoir for irrigation in Japan, the Manno Pond. Along the northern banks of the pond, visitors can enjoy watching fireflies, while strolling along the gentle walking ways. The park is designated as one of the top 50 new scenic spots in Kagawa prefecture. From springtime through summer, the park is seasonally dotted with peonies, irises, azaleas, and other blooming flowers. About 30 years ago, the fireflies had all but disappeared. However, through various creative means of building a water mill, and a stream, to which the insects naturally gravitate, the designers’ efforts paid off, and now this park shines as the hotaruno-sato, the home of the firefly. The best time to see the fireflies are from late May through early June. During this season in which there are various local summer events going on, tours are offered that make for wonderful outings.

昨年は蛍の台乱舞でした。もの凄い数の蛍が飛び交い息をのむ光景が広がっていました。まんのう池の畔に公園はあります。整備された駐車場がありますが、時期には車で溢れます。明るいうちからアクセスする方がいいです。駐車場には多数の自動販売機とトイレも完備されています。なお、蛍を見るために懐中電灯が厳禁です。蛍が逃げますし暫くの間光らなくなります。また、撮影にフラッシュも厳禁です。そんなことをしたら...

Just a stone’s throw from the islands, mainland Kagawa’s prefectural capital, Takamatsu, holds history in its castle ruins and its pride and joy, Ritsurin Garden, is known as one of the country’s best gardens.
