    "This theme park in AEON Mall Makuhari New City lets children ""try out"" over 30 kinds of jobs including being a police officer, pilot, and newspaper reporter in the facility's make-believe city of Kandu. Using equipment and wearing uniforms that resemble the real thing, these occupational role-plays give them a deeper understanding of society. There's also a restaurant that's a great place to relax while the kids are occupied."

    小6の娘という5歳の息子と行ってきました。 良かった点は、 ・子供がお仕事参加中に、親が次の仕事を予約できること ・休憩スペースが広く、食事のメニューが豊富でLINEでオーダーできること 気になった点は、 ・仕事のクオリティが高くない(幼稚園児〜低学年向けの) ・カメラマンが雑 お目当てのポケモンセンタースタッフの仕事ができて、子供たちは満足してました。 キッザニア同様に、人気のお仕事はす...

    The park is comprised of two main areas. The first is the environment and welfare plaza. Here you’ll find a park golf course, play equipment, and a tree peony garden. A tree peony festival is held here around mid-April. The other area is the Ume Park. This area hosts one of the largest ume (Japanese apricot) gardens in the Tokai area, as well as a blueberry garden. An ume festival is held here around mid-February. Special events are also held at the park during which it bustles with visitors. It depends on the ripeness of the ume, but in general around early June you can also try picking ume in the park.

    一度行きたかった梅林公園(農業公園の梅園エリア)に、ようやく訪れることが出来ました。 3月20日現在、八分咲きぐらいでしたが、広大な敷地にしだれ梅を中心に紅梅、白梅など色んな梅が見事に咲いています。 梅林の中を散策するのも優雅な気分ですが、特に高台の見晴らし台からの眺めは、雪がかぶった山並みと梅のコントラストが圧巻で、言葉にできないまさに絶景!! コロナ禍により、梅まつりのイベントが中止のためか...

    The Tokyo Mizube Cruising Line is a water bus that travels along the Sumida River, Arakawa River and Rinkai areas. It offers various courses including not only the standard cruises but event and charter cruises. The “Asakusa-Odaiba Cruise” which tours from the Asakusa area to the Rainbow Bridge and Odaiba area is popular for viewing the Senbonzakura (thousands of cherry trees) in Sumida Park in the spring season, while the night cruise that allows guests to take in Tokyo’s splendid night scenery is recommended for dates.

    Took the trip from Asakusa to Hamarikyu Gardens. Its a goid way to get there, but the fitter on a less wet day could was along the river. The scenery is uninspiring and going out the commentary was...

This is the shortest connection between Shikoku and Kyushu at 31 kilometers wide, taking about 70 minutes to cross.

    Shari-cho Shari-gun, Hokkaido Utoro-e 107
    The Shiretoko Sightseeing Boat operates daily from the end of April to the end of October. The primitive landscape seen from the ship is an exceptional view. Due to its large size the ship is stable and does not rock so much. You can enjoy the scenery leisurely from either a non-reserved seat on the first floor or a reserved seat on the second floor, but the observation deck is recommended if you want to take great photos. It is about 50 minutes by bus from JR Shiretoko Shari Station. It takes about two hours by car from Memanbetsu Airport.

    We booked a trip to the tip of the Shiretoko Peninsula during the GW. On the day of the departure waves were too high and the trip was changed to thei Kamuiwakka Falls instead. We decided to go on...

    A gondola in Kanzanji-cho, Chuo-ku, Hamamatsu City, Shizuoka Prefecture that connects Kanzanji Station near Hamanako Palpal Theme Park with Okusayama Station near the Hamanako Orgel Museum. It's famous for being Japan's first gondola to cross over lake water and while crossing you get a beautiful 360-degree view of Lake Hamanako.

    It looks great in pictures but its a very short ropeway and view is not that spectacular. There really is nothing to see on top besides the Music Box Museum which is really small.
