There are way fewer people here compared to Kiyomizu-dera or Kinkaku-ji, so it's super relaxing to walk around.

Nankai Electric Railway Kada Sakana Line (Kada Line) “Medetai Train”
“Medetai Train” travels the Nankai Electric Railway Kada Line, nicknamed the “Kada Sakana Line.” Built around the concept that “Kada’s prized sea bream now swims along the rails,” it’s a two-car sightseeing train. The name expresses its intent to be “a train that simply riding makes you feel fortunate (medetai)” and “a train that’s so charming you’ll want to keep riding it.”
The whole line is super relaxing! The train's theme is 'fish,' and it's just insanely cute 🐟. The cars are packed with ocean elements—even the hand straps are shaped like fish. I wish I could take one home! 🤣

Ise Jingu
Known affectionately as "Oise-san," the shrine is usually called "Ise Jingu-Shrine," but officially, it is called "Jingu-Shrine".
You can really feel close to the divine here. Every time I visit, it feels like my soul is cleansed. It's so healing.

Banna Park
The prefectural forest park is located on 230m high Mt. Banna in the center of Ishigaki Island. There are exotic tropical trees, a plaza where children can play freely in the great outdoors, and the best ocean view of Ishigaki Island can be seen from the observatory. There are many butterflies and plants that can only be seen in Yaeyama, making it a paradise for nature lovers.
BANNA has a super long slide, an observatory, a bird-watching spot, and a world insect museum that kids love. Pretty awesome place.
