So lovely place and stress free..

Historical place. Beautiful. Mesmerising.

beautiful

(Translated by Google) I stopped by on the way from Akiyoshi Town to Achisu🏍👍 There was a parking lot for about 20 cars, so it was easy to park! The precincts were compact, but there was a beautiful souvenir shop that sold a huge variety of charms and goods! I thought the kids would be happy 😊 (Original) 秋芳町から阿知須に抜けるツーリングの途中で立ち寄りました🏍👍 20台分くらいの駐車場もあり停めやすかったです！ 境内はコンパクトでしたが、綺麗で素敵なお土産物屋さんがあり、物凄い沢山の種類の御守りやグッズ販売してました！お子さん達は喜ぶんじゃないかなーと思いました😊

(Translated by Google) I moved to Ube 2-3 years ago. I heard from the locals that this place is popular and that there are long lines during New Year's visit. The parking lot was full, traffic was congested from the intersection, and people lined up all the way to the bottom of the stairs to worship (^_^;) It seems that many people who are accustomed to the shrine only visit the shrine early in the morning or at night, avoiding the crowded times. This year, 2024, I briefly visited on New Year's Day and January 2nd, but as I was told, it was busy so I decided to go on a different day. It was raining lightly on January 3rd, so when I looked into it, it wasn't as heavy as it was on New Year's Day, so I went home after praying and drawing fortunes (^^) It took about 20 minutes in total♪ There are many types of omikuji (^^) The summer wind chime festival is also beautiful✨ (Original) 2.3年前に宇部に越して来ました。地元の方から、ここは人気で、初詣の時期はすごく並ぶと聞いていました。 駐車場も満杯で、交差点から渋滞していて、参拝の行列で階段の下まで人が並んでいるとか(^_^;) 慣れた人は、混雑する時間帯を避けて、早朝や夜に参拝だけする人も多いらしいです。 今年2024年は、元旦と1/2にチラッと通ってみたけれど、教えて貰った通りの込み具合で別日にしました。 1/3は小雨だったので覗いてみると、元旦ほどは多くなかったので、お参りとおみくじ引いて帰りました(^^) トータル20分くらいで終わりました♪ おみくじも沢山の種類があります(^^) 夏の風鈴まつりもキレイです✨

(Original) 武道守、部勝（活）守、自衛隊守、警察消防守、サンリオ守、ベビーカー守、飛び出し坊や守（通学安全）、ペット守、酒難守、サーフィン守、釣り守、サッカー守、作業機械安全守など、変わったお守りが多数あります。

(Translated by Google) I visited the shrine after hearing that it had a large amount of amulets. On the day I visited, there was a light rain, and there were some spots on the stairs leading up from the Otorii gate where I could slip if I wore hard-soled shoes, so you need to be careful where you step when the weather is bad. Perhaps the timing of my visit was bad, and about a third of the amulets I was looking for were out of stock, but there were still enough of them to be believed. It was a shrine where the chief priest and shrine maiden were wonderful, but I have old-fashioned values ​​and am a little uncomfortable with the large number of offering boxes (which can't be helped as there are many gods enshrined there) and the projection mapping device on the shrine building. I felt... (Original) 大量の御守りがあると言う話を聞いて参拝。訪れた日は小雨がぱらつく時で大鳥居から続く階段ではソールの硬い靴だと滑る箇所もあったので天候が悪い時は足元注意が必要です。目的の御守りは訪れたタイミングが悪かったのか3分の1ほど欠品状態でしたが、それでも確かに多いなと思えるぐらいにはありました。宮司さんや巫女さんの対応は素晴らしい神社でしたが、お賽銭箱の多さ(沢山の神様が祭られてるので仕方ない事)や社殿へのプロジェクションマッピング装置に古い価値観の私は少し苦手感を感じてしまいました…。

(Translated by Google) The place where you can buy amulets is unmanned, so you can choose at your leisure without having to worry about people looking at you. There is a place specializing in safe childbirth and matchmaking behind the place of worship, and it seems to be a very good place to have a happy marriage. (Original) 御守り買うところは無人なので目線など感じずにゆっくりと選べて良い˶˃ᴗ˂˶ 安産や縁結びの専門の場所が参拝箇所の裏にあって夫婦円満などあってとてもご縁がありそうです·͜· ꕤ︎︎

Very good place for shopping

I love the food court and the department store. There’s a mister donuts and also a good takoyaki store. The grocery store sells Allergen-free Christmas Cake you can order in avance. The food is a little more pricey but they have good sales on Tuesdays. The mall also have many nice events for children to attend. The two English schools also holds interesting events. The small craft store sells yarn and fabric. The Daiso is huge and have a great selection. Overall a good place to go with the family.

It is a delight at rainy days or hot days. Good to watch the locals and do a little shopping.

Great place for shoping😂

Fuji Grand is the biggest entertainment spot in Ube City. You can find many things such as supermarket, cloths, sport store, book store, games arena, bowling alley, three mobile phone (Au, Softbank, Docomo) provider, souvenirs, etc. For the supermarket itself, it provides a great quality of groceries especially for the vegetables and fruit :)

Nice shopping mall with a lot of different stores for cloths, shoes, house stuff and eating places.

its the only mall i know near me.. i want to go back here again

The variety of plants and biomes is impressive. Even kids can have a fun time exploring the winding pathways through exotic, beautiful trees, flowers, cacti and more. There is also a relaxing bench behind a cool waterfall if you need to pause to take it all in. The price of admission is reasonable and well worth it.

I go once a month minimum with my family. I have a annual passport and it is worth it if you go, even only a few times a year. This year, I discovered there’s a pass for both museum and zoo. Lots of fun with the kids. I am a big horticulture fan and I just love going there and reading about the plants. I recommend for sure.

Great Place for explore plants..👍

Amazing scenery

Nice place

(Translated by Google) I went here the week after I went to the Tropical Dream Center at Okinawa Memorial Park. I had the impression that the Dream Center was cluttered, but this one was divided into categories such as Europe and Western America, so it was easy to see. It's a tourist facility that takes about 30 minutes to 1 hour, but it was the most fulfilling botanical garden I've ever visited! (Original) 沖縄記念公園の熱帯ドリームセンターに行った翌週にこちらに行きました。 ドリームセンターはごちゃごちゃしているイメージでしたが、こちらはヨーロッパやアメリカ西部などカテゴリに分かれていて見やすかったです。 30分～1時間程度の観光施設ですが、充実感は過去訪問した植物園の中で一番でした！

(Translated by Google) Tokiwa Fantasia I came on Christmas day. I bought a set ticket and went to the botanical museum at night.It was completely different from the daytime, and the night was magical.It was divided into zones, and I had a lot of fun.If you are interested, please come and visit us at night. I recommend it♪ (Original) トキワファンタジア　クリスマスの日に来ました。セット券を買い　夜間の植物館にきました　日中とは　うって変わって夜は幻想的でした　ゾーンごとに分かれてあり　色々楽しめました　みなさんもよかったら是非　遊びに来られた時はぜひ　夜はオススメですね♪

The park is full of beauty and a lots of things to do. I enjoyed and visited each corner of the park.

Wonderful. Beautiful landscapes, interesting sculptures. Strongly recommended for families with children. You can see a lot of different (esp. monkeys) in the local tokiwa Park zoo.

I have been with my friends for memorable moments here. The park is very wide and airy. The cherry blossom season here will be very beautiful at night.

Really big and beautiful park with a shrine and a lake in the middle. You can go around for a ~6km walk. There are different places to sit and rest around it too.

My wife and I went there for the illumination festival just after Christmas. I don't think they had as much to show this year compared to three years ago.

Love the park

Beautiful and decently sized. The zoo is filled with so much!
