The temple grounds are filled with maple trees. Autumn is definitely the best time to visit—the scenery is just beautiful.

Kushiro Fisherman’s Wharf MOO
It is a commercial complex located adjacent to the Nusamai Bridge at the Kushiro River’s mouth. MOO is an acronym for “Marine Our Oasis” and is popular as a symbol of the waterfront.
The Pacific saury here is big, fatty, and super tasty!

Kumano-Nachi Taisha
In 662 BC, Kamuyamato-iware-hikonomikoto (became Emperor Jinmu) dedicated Nachi Waterfall as a god in this shrine. It is the head shrine of Kumano Shrines all over in Japan, known as one of the three major Kumano Shrines. It has another name, “Musubi no Miya” which means the shrine to bring a marriage and wishes to come true.
We took breaks along the way to enjoy the scenery, and after a long walk, finally reached this World Heritage site. The waterfall is truly breathtaking!

Miyazawa Kenji Dowa Mura (Village of Fairy Tales)
This hands-on facility is based on the motif of Kenji Miyazawa's fairy tales. The ”Ginga Station (Galaxy Station)", "Tenkuu no Hiroba (Plaza in the Sky)", "Kenji no Kyoshitsu (Kenji's Classroom)", "Yosei no Komichi (Fairy's lane)", "Fukurou no Komichi (Owl's lane)", "San'ya Soen (Wildflower Garden)", and "Kenji no Gakko (Kenji's School)" are all designed in a fantastical way.
It's really close to the station, so you don't have to spend much time on transportation. 👍
