Come here to experience the life and culture nurtured through the bounty and dangers of nature and the coexistence of man and nature.
Day 1
Visited Sanriku Fukko National Park. Many of its areas had been once damaged by the Tsunami in 2011, but not only it was reconstructed, now the park is part of Michinoku Coastal Trail, a very long path that runs 1,000km along the spectacular Pacific Ocean. The coast in both Miyagi and Iwate is called a Rias Coast, which consists of lots of complicated coast lines and mountains, which as a result, create some of the amazing ocean view from the rocky cliffs. Sanriku is also famous for its fishery as the area boasts a massive production of salmon, shellfish, and seaweed that are not only enjoyed by domestic customers but also exported to international markets.
Here you can
1. Ask Seagull where good restaurants are.
2. Enjoy the "Bottled Mixed Sashimi" otherwise known as BINDON
3. Discover that Blue Grotto also existed in Japan
Day 2
The trip continues in Sanriku Fukko National Park. Despite the rugged terrain, you can travel along the coast by Sanriku Railway and visit some very interesting spots. Also along the coast, you may find some damaged buildings kept by local governments as an earthquake disaster remains..
1. Sanriku railway offers some amazing ocean view from the window and it even slows down for you to take some photos and you can strike a pose like myself.
2. Learn what a Tsunami could do to a large building such as "Taro Kanko Hotel". If you wish, you can join a guided tour by local guides (Japanese only), who will tell you what happened to the hotel and to them on 2011/3/11
3. Be ready for being overwhelmed by the majestic figure when you see "Sannoiwa Rocks", created over 100 million years by the rough waves and winds that blow across the ocean.
Day 3
My trip in Sanriku Fukko National Park is coming to the end. but there were 3 more things I had to do before I go home.
1. "Shiofukiana Tide hole" that blows the seawater up as high as 30m. But be careful ,this is a kind of the place where you will eventually stay more than you expect to wait for the best moment.
2."Ryusendo Cave" One of the Three Great Limestone Caves in Japan has unbelievable 5,000km in length and the most impressive thing is underground lake. The lake is 98m in depth and has beautiful blue colour, The lake looked as if they were about to take me in.
3.An official routine when you get out of a limestone cave. Scoff a soft serve icecream. Their yogurt flavor was my favorite BTW.
