Gunma Safari Park
A wildlife kingdom where you can observe animals from the comfort of your car.
There is a leisure tour where you see 1000 animals from around 100 species up close and personal, and a plaza for petting of the small animals. And there is even an amusement park with a Ferris wheel to enjoy.
Mt. Myogi
The mountain which is bristling with strangely-shaped rocks is one of Japan’s Three Great Rare Scenic Beauties. The scene of interweaving fall colors and unusual rocks is especially beautiful.
The powerful sight of the rocky Mt. Myogi is unusual even in Japan and is a place to behold. In spring, there are cherry blossoms and fresh leaves while in autumn, the mountain is famous for the changing leaves. The area also has a shrine, an onsen and an art museum.
Nakanotake Shrine
Prayers have been heard here for hundreds of years towards Japan’s largest golden Daikokuten (God of Wealth).
Nakanotake Shrine is famous for Japan’s largest golden statue of the God of Wealth which stands 20m tall. It is also a shrine that has held the Kinoene Festival for hundreds of years in which prayers are given late into the night.
