This park is lovely even if you aren't going there with children. The foliage and views of the water are very beautiful. You can see the Saikai bridges from the overlooks. There are several kid friendly things including a sledding hill (plastic grass), a small zip ride, etc. However I think most of those activities are weekend only. All in all a good place to spend some outdoor time.

So-called Ninety-nine Islands are actually composed of 208 islands. "Ninety nine" means "many". We can enjoy the beautiful view from many angles. There are observatories on mountains and hills. Also, you can get on "Kujuuku-shima Cruising" to enjoy view from ocean cruising among islands. いわゆる九十九島は、実際、208の島々から成っています。「99」は「多い」という意味です。いろいろな角度から美しい景色を楽しむことができます。山や丘に展望台があります。九十九島クルージングに乗船して、島々の間をクルージングしながら海からの景色も楽しめます。

Not too difficult to get to, beautiful in season. Park offers some nice vistas, so be sure to go on a clear day when the weather is nice. The azaleas are quite striking as they climb the hillside in happy little clumps, and there are roller slides to ride. Also a playground for kids. Above the pond there's a cafe where you can grab a drink, buy some souvenirs, have a snack and just enjoy the view. Highly recommend.

Huis Ten Bosch is a theme park in Kyushu Nagasaki, Sasebo City, which recreates the Netherlands by displaying life-sized copies of old Dutch buildings. This awesome place has many attractions, museums, shops, restaurants, and hotels. One of the biggest theme park in Japan for it's flower festival and spectacular illumination. There are many things to do in this place like strolling in the flower road, forest villa, art garden, adventure park, or shop at the World bazaar, check the harbor town, tower city, thriller city, and enjoy the rides of their attraction town. The selections are all great so it's hard to pick one that suits you. Overall we really enjoyed our vacation and definitely will come back to this place.

Miuracho Catholic Church is only a short walk away from Sasebo JR station. It is set on top of the hill with many many stairs to climb up. You can go around the back street which is less tiring to walk. However, it is a small quaint church. It does look very majestic from the front. Don't forget to visit the beautiful Mary statue within the compounds when you are there.

Don't miss this, even if you only have one day in Sasebo. We take all our visitors here. So gorgeous! One-hour boat ride from a lovely little harbor, through the 99 Islands area (actually more than 99) with commentary in English, Japanese, & Korean. Only 1400 yen, and boats go every half hour from 10-4. There's a white boat and a pirate boat, so if you have kids they may want to ride on the pirate boat.
