    Fukui Oi-gun Oicho Oshima 21-95

    オートキャンプ場では設備も整い、バンガローからキャンプサイトまで色々と選ぶことが出来る。売店では大概のものが手に入るので、キャンプなどの時に忘れ物をしたときに重宝する。海の近くだが、林があるため海風もきつく無く、バイクも潮だらけにはならなかった。ウイスキー片手に潮騒を聞きながら思いを巡らすのも心地よい。3度行ったが、お勧めである。

    大きな滑り台のあるところはいくつか行ったのですが、エレベーターで上がれるのは斬新てすね 一応アスレチック兼用の登り口もあります 他に芝すべりや手漕ぎのトロッコなど色々遊べます。 入園料や芝すべりやすべり台の敷物なとで飲食除外で1000円ほどかかりました 園自体は広大とはいえないのと、滑り台もそう何度も滑るものではないので、体を動かしたい子供にとっては、そろそろ帰りたい発言が出るくらいでした 小...

Northeast of Kyoto, the ancient Tojinbo Cliffs separate Fukui prefecture from the Sea of Japan in a stretch of land well worth exploring. Water sports and seaside delicacies are available in abundance as the spectacular rugged coastline flattens down into beaches to the west of the prefecture, while inland, Fukui is home to Zen Buddhist temples and historic ruins.
