About Minami Park in Okazaki City

I will introduce Minami Park in Okazaki City, Aichi Prefecture. 

Minami Park is a very large park. The site includes a citizen's pool, traffic square, plum grove, tennis court and sport scuare. Models of steam locomotives are on display in the traffic square. Tennis courts have a fee, but rackets and balls are lent free of charge. The traffic square is available for free. There are many things to see, but I would like to recommend the amusement park the most.

There are cycle monorails, teacups, merry-go-rounds, Ferris wheels, etc. The view from the Ferris wheel is very beautiful and you can see Okazaki City at a glance. There's something surprising about it too. It's the price. Other amusement parks are a little expensive, but this one is very cheap. 

For example, the cycle monorail costs 60 yen and the Ferris wheel costs 100 yen. Other rides are not more than 100 yen. You can buy 100 yen, 60 yen, and 20 yen tickets at the ticket machine, and you  can get on if you give them to the staff. You can use a 20 yen ticket in case you run out of money.

I recommend taking a bus or car when you go to Minami Park. There are parking lots in six places, and 280 cars can be parked in total. It's free.

When you stop by Okazaki City,

I recommend that you visit Minami Park.
