Hotel Europe
The impressive resort filled with flowers and lights “Huis Ten Bosch” runs this hotel. Surrounded by peaceful canals. It is the recreation of the high-end Dutch hotel with the same name.
You can take the park's special boat to check in at the hotel. It's a high-end European-style hotel.

Maizuru Brick Park
Once used as fish-shaped torpedo warehouses by the Navy, this complex now houses eight red brick warehouses, all designated as important cultural properties by the country. Building No. 1, among them, is preserved as one of the oldest existing steel-frame brick structures.
You can enjoy beautiful ocean views here and learn about the local maritime history.

Oharai Machi, Okage Yokocho
In front of the Inner Shrine of Ise Jingu Shrine, there's a street called Oharai Machi that bustles with numerous worshippers every year. From the Edo Period to early Meiji Period, many people called Onshi lived here and performed Shinto dance and music for their worshippers (Oharai), thus, the name Oharai Machi is believed to have come about.
The lively street scene from the Edo period is recreated here. There are tons of shops selling all kinds of local snacks and souvenirs.
