Hosokura Mine Park

Amusement Park / Theme Park
Located around 25 minutes’ drive from Tsukidate Interchange, Hosokura Mine Park is a theme park built on the site of the former Hosokura Mine, which closed in 1987. The facilities at the Park faithfully recreate the way the mine appeared when it was still operational; visitors can walk along the mine shafts, and can learn about how mining was carried out. There is also a Hosokawa Mine Museum which displays items discovered in the Mine, has extensive information about the Mine’s history, and has examples of important types of mineral ores and models showing the Mine’s operations, etc. There is also a gold-panning experience zone where visitors can try their hand at panning for gold dust; visitors can take the gold dust that they collect home with them.

Review

  • 日本を支えた産業遺産です。
    4.0 Reviewed : 2019.10.18
    栗駒山から鳴子峡に向かう途中に、旧鉱山があるとわかり、急遽立ち寄りました。ゴーストタウンの雰囲気で、見学者も我ら2人だけ「?」との気分でした。ただ坑道や地域の説明により、このような産業(労働者)が日本を影で押し上げた事が良くわかり、貴重な文化遺産です。
  • ひんやり、しっとり

    夏の盛りに入った坑道は14℃でひんやりしていました。半袖では寒いので羽織るものは必須です。鍾乳洞のように、上からポタ、ポタと水滴も落ちるので歩くところは濡れています。滑らないようにご注意。鉱業の歴史が分かる資料室もあり、産業の推移がなんだか懐かしく感じるのです。
  • スライダー最高♪

    観光坑道のエリアと、スライダーパークエリアがあります。観光坑道は昔の坑道の雰囲気などが確認でき、とても勉強になります。土日などに体験できる砂金取りは、比較的低料金で楽しめ、大人まで夢中になってしまいます。同じく土日祝日などのみになりますが、スライダーパークはリフトに乗って山頂まで行き、一気にスライダーで降りてくるものですが、素晴らしい景色を見ながら風を感じることができる施設です。
