    Wakayama Pref. Itogunkatsuragichou Hanazonoyanase 1020
    "This is a cavern where one can encounter a dinosaur experience just 20 minutes by car from the Hanazono branch of Katsuragi-cho town office. Two dinosaurs greet you at the gate of the cavern labyrinth. Once inside, the diorama corner displays dioramas of Triceratops and Pteranodons, and one can pass on through the cool maze of fluorescent minerals through the ‘glowing tunnel’ while enjoying the various Jurassic displays. In the Gokuraku-do (paradise cave), visitors can experience the world after death in Buddhism by walking along the passages leading either to ""paradise"" or ""hell"" themed areas. Besides, 200,000 kerria bushes which reach their peak bloom around the long holiday in May."

    恐竜ランドに行くまでは、恐竜の化石が発掘されたといった経緯があって作られたと施設だと、勝手に思っていましたが、全く関係なく、小原鉱山の廃坑を利用して村の活性化のために作られたものでした。中の蛍光石は天然ではなく展示品で、ちょっと残念でした。

    Wakayama Kinokawa Takebusa 391
    This paragliding school is located about a 10-minute drive from Kinokawa Interchange on the Keinawa Expressway via Prefectural Route 62 and National Route 424. The Yuriyama Slope on the western face of the 300 meter height above sea level, Mt. Saishogamine serves as the school's dedicated paragliding slope. The school offers both half-day and full-day paragliding experiences. Its staff provides in-depth instruction on the basics of paragliding such as the proper takeoff posture and how to land, so even complete beginners can enjoy the sport. Strong updrafts make the Kinokawa River basin one of western Japan's biggest air sport destinations. Licensed paragliders can even fly all the way to the Kinokawa River flood plains.

around-area-map

Wakayama prefecture unites pilgrims, food lovers, and culture buffs in a tranquil corner of Japan at the base of the Kii Peninsula. The setting for many a Kumano Kodo pilgrimage trail, Wakayama invites those in search of spirituality from one side of the prefecture to the other, from the 100-plus Buddhist temples of the sacred Mount Koya in the west to the inspiring temples of the Kumano Sanzan set among breathtaking nature in the east. Once the grueling hike is complete, make a beeline for Wakayama city to savor some of the country’s most delicious ramen noodles.
