    A five-minute drive west from the Yoro Interchange on the Tokai-Kanjo Expressway. This young children's amusement park is situated close to Yoro Falls.

    "This art museum is located a ten-minute walk from Ogaki Station's South Exit. It exhibits works and materials of the Japanese artist Tadashi Moriya, praised in his hometown as an honorary citizen of Ogaki and a recipient of the Order of Cultural Merit.

It is a historical painting that depicts an encounter between east and west, with the decoration of a koto and smoke from an incense burner to the patterns of chairs and carpets that were popular at the time. This work and other difficult-to-preserve Japanese paintings are not on permanent display, but about 3,300 works are rotated and displayed every two months."
