Maiko Park

4.0

A municipal park with an exotic atmosphere opened in 1900. The park is located at the foot of the Akashi Kaikyo Bridge a five-minute walk from Maiko Station on the JR San'yo Main Line as well as Sanyo Electric Railway Maiko-koen Station. Maiko Beach is known for its spectacular white sands and green pines as well as its commanding view of Awaji Island and has been praised in poem and song since ancient times. Today, some 1,800 pines grow in a grove in the area. Various historic structures restored or rebuilt to their full glory stand on the park's grounds and are open to the public, such as the Former Residence of the Kinoshita Family, an early modern Japanese home built in the tea ceremony arbor style; and the Former Residence of Sanji Muto, a Western-style home built in the Colonial style.

The bridge hangs over this park. Why was this park built, just to gobble up more budget? Devastating!
Best spot to view Akashi Kaikyo Bridge

This park near Akashi Kaikyo Bridge is the best spot to view the bridge. In the park there is also a museum about Sun Wen, and along the seaside you can enjoy a very pleasant walking. It is suitable...
