    This is an interactive zoo. You go into their enclosures. Little vending machines take a 100-yen coin. You receive food for that particular animal, and they will eat it right from your...

    道の駅としては中規模。農産物コーナーは地のものも多く陳列されてました。土産品でここぞという商品はお茶ぐらいな印象、これ以外は近隣の道の駅・土産品店で入手出来そうなものだらけという感じです。 ここでしか入手できないというような商品の出現を期待したい道の駅でした(空港内の土産品店よりはここで購入した方が良いとは思いました)

    日帰りの立ち寄り湯を利用しました。お湯はつるっとした炭酸泉で肌に良さそうです。温度がそれほど熱くないので長めに浸かれます。湯船は少し狭いですが、露天もあるのでこちらがおすすめです。 駐車場が交差点向かいにあるので混雑してました。

    常駐している人が居ないので勝手に入っていいものか少々悩みましたが、問題ないようです。西海市大瀬戸方面の歴史や先人の営みが学べる施設ですが、動線が曖昧です。展示物も説明のボードが上下逆さまだったり、大瀬戸の歴史関連の資料を見ていたら急に石の話になる。ちぐはぐ感は否めないと感じます。しかし家船(えぶね)に関しては非常に興味深いものでした。実物大を実際に見てみたいと思わせる展示物でした。

    These limestone caves approximately 25 minutes by car from JR Huis Ten Bosch Station have been designated a National Natural Monument.

The caves maintain a comfortable year-round temperature of about 15 degrees Celsius, making them particularly popular in summer. They're illuminated a refreshing blue during certain periods too. You can explore parts of the cave generally not open to the public with a guide if you book in advance. A shop offers numerous original items for sale like Nanatsugama Meisui Ramune soda pop.

Nagasaki Areas

around-area-map

This hidden corner of the country is rural Japan at its best, where underground activity is to thank for active volcanoes and bubbling natural hot springs along the Shimabara Peninsula as well as the crystal clear waters of the Goto Islands off the west coast. Less well known than Hiroshima’s Peace Memorial Park, Nagasaki commemorates its own past at the Nagasaki Peace Park, which sits alongside the charming Meganebashi stone bridge and a mix of religious buildings with beautiful architecture, such as the Zen Buddhist Sofukuji Temple, the Confucian Shrine, and the Oura Christian Church.
