Address: Mine, Yamaguchi 754-0602, Japan. Getting there: The best way is to travel by taxi or by rental car. Huge parking space is provided. Highlights: Akiyoshidai Quasi-National Park is served by a natural history museum, visitor centre, rest house, youth hostel and park headquarters building, and is traversed by a scenic roadway and several walking trails. The plateau consists of uplifted reef limestones of Paleozoic age, which were thickened by overfolding during the Akiyoshidai orogenic movement. Subsequent erosion has created an undulating karst landscape dimpled with many dolines and countless limestone pinnacles up to two meters in height. The landscape and the hike was really amazing and you should definitely try it yourself! 😬😁 #bucketlistreboot #traveljapan #gooutside
