Otsuka Pharmaceutical's pet project to make the world's art pieces accessible to the world. Built inside a mountain, on the tip of Shizuoka is this museum of ceramic replicates of the world's greatest art pieces. Probably one of the only places one can see modern greats like Andy Warhol, Salvatore Dali, and Picasso all on one floor. To see the most famous pieces of Michael Angelo, Van Goh, Gaugin, Renior, Rafael, Rodrigues, Vermeer, Rubins all in one building is pretty amazing. They have a recreation, in its exact dimensions, the Sistine Chapel. Rooms devoted to the annunciation, self-portraits, and recreation of Monet's Nymphéas outside. While these are only exact replicas, it is a great way to see and appreciate these masterpieces in the same building. You can do comparisons without having to travel around the globe. It really builds appreciation for art and culture. Currently, there is a COVID19 shortened free guided tour of about 40 minutes. Regularly it is 2 hours. In Japanese only. There is an audio guide for a fee. Available in many languages. Parking is very far away but there are shuttle busses that come every few minutes to shuttle you back and forth.

Oboke Koboke

Reviewed By KEG-JP - Osaka Prefecture, Japan

I experienced the first rafting with family. I applied to the shop “safari”, because this shop is doing pick up service between the shop and Awa-Ikeda Station of JR. Staffs are very kind and cheerful, and foreign staffs are working. I could spend very happy time while enjoying a scene of beautiful Koboke with my familliy. 三好市池田町イタノ3306-6にある『サファリ』というお店に申し込んで初のラフティングを家族で楽しみました。このお店はJRの阿波池田駅まで迎えに来てくれます。スタッフの方はとても陽気で親切。美しい小歩危の景観を楽しみながら、ファミリーコースではラフティングの途中でボートを滑り台にして滑ったり、高い岩の上から飛び込んだり、色々遊んで満喫できました。他にも色々なコースがあり、リピーター割引もあるので、来年も是非行きたいと思います。

Iya Kazura Bridge

Reviewed By Lunasolhk - Hong Kong, China

The most accessible and popular vine bridge as you can access it by JR and also car. Just 5 mins from the parking lot and you will see a breathtaking view. The valley is beautiful and the bridge is one of a kind, one of Japan's 3 most peculiar bridges. Made of mountain vines at the Iya Valley it a really special experience to walk on it and enjoy the scenic views.
