Bingling Station

One of the highlights of the Kurobe Gorge Torrocco train. It is located about a 60-minute ride from Unazuki Station, and there are "Kurobe Mannengyuki" and "Kōyōgawara" and "Kōyō Op-Op-Op. There are many shooting points around the station, so let's look for my best point.

Three statues of bells and bells

A three-body Buddha statue, which is laid to rest in a large rock shade at the foot of the West Bell Diaoyan Mountain; enshrined as a safety prayer for the Kurobe River, famous for its rampaging river; and about 60 minutes ride from the Kurobe Gorge Railway Unazuki Station.

Sannaviki Mountain

The mountain that can be seen on the right when the station approaches. At an altitude of 194 m, it is also called "Sakigake Mountain" because it is snow-covered earlier than the surrounding mountains. In addition, in the autumn, you can also enjoy the scenery of the five-tiered dyeing of Kurobe Gorge with the addition of snow-white at the top of the mountainside, decidued purple at the top, autumn leaves at the bottom of the mountainside, green at the foot of the foot, and the color of the clear stream. Car window view only (with guidance by in-car broadcast in advance).

Maruyama Observation Deck

An observation deck with a 180 degree panorama from the summit at an altitude of 492m. A promenade has been maintained around Lake Akaozan from the vicinity of Yu-Yu Land and Hana Tsubaki, and you can reach the summit observation deck in about 45 minutes. Below you can see the scattered villages of the Tonami Plain, and if you are blessed with good weather, you can also see Toyama Bay.

Hie Shrine

It is a shrine located in the center of the city of Toyama, and is familiar with the name "Toyama Sanno-san". The age of Shōken is unknown, but in ancient times, the record of the second year of Jianwu (1335) remains. Oyamakuijin and Omikigami are the main priests, and Atenshou Omikami and Toyomi Omikami are enshrined in Aiden. In the first place, it is the largest crowd in the prefecture, and there are many young people who visit as there is a benefit of the connection.

Toyama Prefecture Ariga Art Park

The base of activity of the theater company SCOT. The theater, including the outdoor theater and the Reiga Yamafusa, which has been converted from the Gassho house, was designed by architect Arata Isozaki. The SCOT summer season is held in Sōnai for about one month in August. It will feature a theater performance by a leading Japanese theater director, the Riga Theater Competition, which aims to unearth the director.
