Quietly nestled within the peaceful nature of the Nomo Peninsula, "Kawahara Oike Park" is a healing nature park spreading around Kawahara Oike, the largest natural freshwater lake in Nagasaki Prefecture, where water and greenery harmonize beautifully. Amazingly, this pristine lake is adjacent to the expansive East China Sea with only a narrow sand beach separating them, possessing a unique topology found nowhere else in the world where you can experience the quietude of fresh water and the dynamic energy of the ocean simultaneously. The rich forests surrounding the lake serve as a home to many wild birds, and the bird songs alongside the quiet water surface core-relax visitors' minds. Completely forgetting busy urban life and being gently embraced by the embrace of great nature makes it the finest sanctuary to reset your mind and body.
