So you’ve done Disneyland, Disney Sea, Universal Studios and Fuji Q and you want something else, something a little weird, an unforgettable ‘experience’, well consider Yoro Park in Gifu. Considered the primary attraction of the town of Yoro, this theme park is a place where visitors are warned to expect the unexpected. Yoro Park is as if Dali and Picasso combined forces and built the landscape blueprint for a realistic natural reserve. Designed to contain the 100 waterfalls in the area, visitors are guided through the park by locals. It’s a bit weird, but if you’re in the area it is a quirky way to enjoy Japan’s natural beauty and sometimes warped creative mind. To get there catch the Tokaido-Sanyo Shinkansen from Tokyo station and hop off at Nagoya station, from there you can catch a local JR rapid train. Recommended by Lucy Dayman.
