[2026 year edition] it's recommended at winter Ishigakijima, tourist attraction 6 election

Ishigakijima where I'm strong in an image of a vacation in summer. Then, with winter, that I say, the temperature is compared with summer, and, much, the average temperature it falls, but which is 12-February is about 19 ℃. A north wind is strong and the sensible temperature is a little lower, but it's mild compared with Honshuu to tend to have time, and the feature. I'll introduce Experience which can enjoy abundant nature, the grand scenery and winter Ishigakijima travel such as a cute animal and culture Okinawa fully and a spot this time. To find charm in Ishigakijima I don't know yet, how about working a plan of travel?

Horseback riding Experience where it's popular when you can enjoy yourself near the city

Horses with the stirps of the Japanese native breed receive the south into Okinawa and the north to Hokkaido.

"Euglena stone wall harbor solitary island terminal" (in the following, isolated island terminal) it's a car to the empty pasture, about 15 minutes. The horses raised at present are a mixture of a total stallion, and is the appearance also individuality Yutaka? It's shorter than a thoroughbred and the foot is also rather fat around the waist, and I'm lovely. When it'll be 2 including a drill-3 years old from about 6 months, it's said that they achieve a debut for a light course of "trail of kids" etc.. The purpose brought up free from all cares importantly in the nature in Ishigakijima or, everyone is gentle every horse. Even a perfect beginner can enjoy horseback riding surely.

It's the landscape different from "usual stone wall" to see from the horse top.

The pleasure which can plan for will communication by a horse and one to one is special.
The pleasure which can plan for will communication by a horse and one to one is special.

The one which is recommended to the person who would like to touch a horse carefully is a "the hill where a sea is seen and, gelato" course. The heat is 150 minute long plan of eased autumn-spring limitation. If communication with a horse and a lesson of an operating method are finished, the pasture is left. Indeed the freshness and the feeling of opening which look the landscape appropriate for Ishigakijima such as cane fields and pastures around from the horse top with the height are extraordinary. The hilltop where the destination is slightly elevated. Indeed the sea and the sky where I look at good gelato while stuffing the mouth are a superb view.

Even if I say that it's smaller than a thoroughbred, a horse is felt very big as expected in the neighborhood, isn't it? They're very wise, and there is feeling of achievement different from contact with the other animals.

Such "BANNA park" is new, the tour that to attract attention as how to enjoy oneself gets on SEGUWEI and enjoys natural observation in the park. The tour guide who knew everything of localness accompanies, so as well as its being natural in the tour it's also a popular secret that colorful talk can be heard about Yaeyamashotou such as sightseeing, a gourmet, culture and history.

Experience type theme park in which the old private house where history is here was reconstructed is enjoyed fully.

It's possible to buy the ryuusou photograph I had a cameraman take (It requires Nyuumura charge in photography at an old private house.)

The theme park in the Japan southernmost tip which neighbors "Nagura bean jam pal" which was also registered with an international treaty as the important marsh where a mangrove grows. The old private house where an islander was living actually the past is reconstructed in a new location and the old landscape of good Yaeyama is reproduced. Accessory Property designed as "Nagura drive-in" just before the Nyuumura mouth will complete it in October, 2020. While taking a break in the way of before and behind Nyuumura and the drive, various Experience as well as a meal dropped in, and became possible. The various menus such as a seesaw color bill and "Ryukyu costume Experience" I feel like raising in SNS are even.

The landscape which makes traditional Yaeyama recall, nature and contact with an animal

The valuable old private house where history in Yaeyama is told is must-see including a residence and Morita house of the old descendant of a samurai who could build in 1900 (1899) year.

It can be visited freely at YAIMA village inside the old private house which is also designated as national registered tangible cultural property. The view from "bean jam pal tower" which made the far bookstand in antiquity a motif is also worth a glance. There are other Ike of a buffalo who relaxes massively and Elijah who can touch a cute squirrel monkey in the village, too, so it's also recommended to to the animal lover. A person of a natural party advances the natural sight-seeing way which continues in the village, and how about taking a walk through Nagura bean jam pal? Kido is passing so that a forest of a mangrove may be sewn, so it's the chance to feel the valuable landscape imminently.

The Japan southernmost tip where it's in short distance for about 10 minutes by car from a city and the limestone cavern where Shimauchi is biggest. About 660 m of inside of the full length 3.2km is opened to the public. It's about 23 ℃ through the year, so the temperature in cave also fits sightseeing on the day when chilliness is felt. When I pass through a gate in Ryugu-jo a look and come down thin stairs, the underground castle which can't be imagined from the ground spreads over the inside to the inside. Growth of stalactite in Ishigakijima is about 1 mm for 3 years. It's said that it takes about 200,000 years before it'll be the form now. A fossil of a partridge guy of sinal wall tells that this was the bottom of the sea formerly.

The dramatic space where it can be adventure person feeling, sense

When I'm advancing maintained This Way, the interesting place where the name which sparks imagination was put is showing one after another "younger princess palace" "the Hakone Open Air Museum of gods". The sound device in Japanese garden which hears the tone of the water which drips from stalactite, fantastic illuminations and the point which can't be overlooked such as the lake of the depths of the earth where clear water is praised and the "stalactite of" TOTORO on which the name was put from a rumor that it's similar are plenty. Go up the topography in the cave where I have, go down, look up and look down, and please be satisfied with a natural breath fully by adventure person feeling.

Such selfishness production Experience of Ryukyu glass would like to do at the place where a sea is seen is the atelier which materializes. The quiet area where it's away from the town a little that there is a store. A stylish original work equals in the store, and the creation will is also stimulated. Something most real in 4 Experience courses, "Ryukyu spout glass Experience". 1 favorite one can be chosen from 3 of a glass small bowl and a small vase. Even coloring, the circumstances and a presence of an air bubble are decided by their taste of course, so only 1 original glass work can be made the world.

I'll invent Ryukyu glass work for only One.

Melted glass hardens suddenly, so quick work is essential.

If building the design up first in the store, choosing a glass fragment with the favorite color and compounding it, I move to the atelier in the next. The interior is the work which made the kiln which became more than 1300 times the front, so a winter person recommends from hot summer. If glass melts, you can pattern, blow and inflate by an arm, and the bottom is made, the mouth, "Open.", work is advanced rapidly with Staff/staff member. The pleasure by which the glass which seemed to be starch syrup is changing the shape to an image street is much more. You have to cool a work slowly, so you can put Naka for 1 day and take back. Every time I take in my hand, a memory of fun travel will be to revive.

The "Ishigaki's salt atelier" where I pause along Nagura where the mouth is opened in the island southwest bay. The abundant water which flows into Omoto mountain (that it's of primary concern) empty bay in the Okinawa highest peak where I dominate "Iriomote stone wall national park" and the mineral the coral into which I grew by the nourishment produces are enough seawater, and salt making is being performed. Salt making in first Yaeyamashotou is also the place which has started before about 300 years, and it's said that this land is also the starting point of the renaissance built with salt of today's island. The taste is also the atelier I want a person a little interested in the additive-free salt making which changes and natural food data in an island to visit by all means by a season of islander craftsman trained. "Salt making of a stone wall, Experience" (Reservation required and the day which cleared up are recommended.) the Experience menu of the etc. is also prepared.
