Kitazawa Fuyusenkojo Remains

Reviewed By NyaNya24 - Melbourne, Australia

Stumbled across this place unexpectedly and was blown away by the site, it was so out of this world. Wish we could get closer to it but still felt pretty unreal. The hotel I stayed also took me there at night when the light show was on and it was so eerie. Would recommend check it out both day and night (if the light show is on) to compare if u are staying close by. There is also a pottery shop close but I ran out of time to visit due to limited bus run.

Historic Relic Sado Gold Mine

Reviewed By Toddjapan

I was told by multiple trusted sources that the Sado Gold Mine was really worth visiting, and I am so glad I did. Inside the mines you can really imagine previous eras, the historical, technical, cultural dynamics. I have seen too many lame experiences around the world, but this one really delivered! I would actually like to go back again and take friends.
