Oh naruto kyo from Tokushima
Today I went to “Naruto Park” to see “Uzu“, huge vortex near “Naturo”.
The word Naruto represents a narrow strait where water flows with a roaring sound.
You might know as a main character of the manga and animation “Naruto”.
Naturo park
I got a flight to Tokushima from Haneda, Tokyo.
You may take a local bus to reach Naruto Park. It is a way cheap and efficient way.
You can see the local life in this area.
It is so hot everywhere in Japan even in Europe.
Do not forget to take water and salt. You should prevent heatstroke in a foreign country.
Hot summer way to Uzu no michi
You can walk from the bus stop with umbrella.
Human feels better under the shadow in the summer.
Please go to the attraction, “Uzu no michi”, road of the vortex.
Uzu no michi, under the Oh naruto kyo
It is a real road under the huge bridge called “Oh Naruto Kyo“.
You can walk under the bridge and end of it, you will see the vortex below you.
Entrance fee is 510 yen, about 3.6US$.
I strongly recommend you to go there.

You feel like walking outside.
It is caged everywhere, maybe preventing the suicide,.
The sea breeze is cool here even in the summer.
Natural air conditioner. I guess we can not go in the fall and winter. It should breeze.
Now I reached the end.
Ship near the naruto
To tell the truth, I was scared.
There are always vibration and noise that the cars made.
The scene was perfectly beautiful and comfortable.
Transparent material should be polycarbonate never glass.
I really had a good experience.
Move to observatory “Esuca“
Crossing the highway
We can cross the highway to reach an observatory “Esuca building”

I was a little tired by the heat.
Moved to “Awa Odori Kaikan“
Awa odori Kaikan building
My second purpose to see the city from “Bizan“, mountain.
It is easy to take a ropeway to reach the top of the mountain.
Ropeway goes from the 5th floor of Awa Odori Kaikan.

Top view from Bizan
This is a whole scene from the top of Bizan mountain.
It got cloudy.
Beautiful enough.
Awa odori live
It is a great pity we are not allowed to show the Awa odori Live.
Chinese, who does not understand Japanese, was taking many photos and filming.
The live was so good.
Strong rhyme and hard dance.
I never wanted to try but good to see.
A short trip in Tokushima.
I had to go back tokyo, hot city.

While the earth remains, seedtime and harvest, cold and heat, summer and winter, day and night, shall not cease.”
