Nice walks through beautiful scenery, with winding paths along the coast, above the cliffs and by the sea, or among trees and bamboo. Some small shrines along the way.

This is a world wonder and I am surprised that the tour buses have not found their way here. This place is probably Japan’s best kept secret for the locals to enjoy and not open to too much foreign tourists. If you get a chance, do come for a day trip and enjoy the Sea of Japan, the beautiful cliffs, and the sea breeze. The picture below speaks wonders of this place.

You can get up close and personal with the animals and touch them at the aquarium. This outstanding aquarium is located in front of the Sea of Japan, right next to Tojinbo. This popular, original facility is a little different from your run-of-the-mill aquarium. The secret is the Taikangata (experiencing) Aquarium. Here you can feed huge sea turtles and fish, and touch a giant octopus, a seal and even a live shark! The aquarium is open until 9:00 p.m., and in summer children can swim alongside fish in the Kaisui Pool and enjoy observing the seaside life on the natural ocean shore. In addition, in the Ocean Hall that will open in July 2009, the Coral Sea, where you can try floating on top of the ocean like in a dream, is a must-see! It’s an experience in a super dimensional space like walking on the surface of the water. Of course the aquarium is also replete with an enjoyable dolphin show. As everyday attractions, visitors can touch a dolphin and take a walk next to Humboldt penguins.
