Jagatani Park
Jagatani Park is a leisure park where you can relax and enjoy nature.
Jagatani Park is a leisure park nestled in nature, boasting a total area of 21.45 hectares. It is a popular spot for residents to relax and offers various facilities, including a baseball field, gateball, tennis courts, and ground golf courses.
From the park's observatory, you can enjoy panoramic views of Tamana City, the Ariake Sea, and Mount Unzen. On clear days, it's possible to see the Uto Peninsula and Mount Fugen. The "Commemorative Tree Forest" in the park becomes particularly lively in early spring when about 1,500 cherry trees bloom, attracting many visitors for hanami (cherry blossom viewing).
A favorite among children is the "Super Slider," a thrilling 130-meter long roller slide that can be enjoyed for free. Visitors grab a mat at the bottom and climb up to the starting point of the slide. Whizzing down the slide with the wind in your hair is a refreshing experience, and even adults can enjoy a return to their childhood.
