| KUSHIRO Marsh |
the largest marshland in Japan |
01N001 |
 |
The largest marshland in Japan, the Kushiro Marsh, is designated as a national
natural monument, and as such maintains a unique Hokkaido-like landscape.
It is also home to precious flora and fauna, including the Japanese crane
(Red-crowne crane), a national special natural monument. In 1980, the center
of the marshland became the first Ramsar Convention registered wetland
in Japan. After that, almost the entire area, including the marshland surrounding
area, was designated as a national park. There are several observation
decks within the national park, so you can enjoy magnificent views. You
can also take the special train "Kushiro Marshland Norokko" operated
by JR Hokkaido from April to October, or the tourist train "SL Winter
Marshland" that runs mainly on weekends and holidays from January
to March, to enjoy the spectacular view of the Kushiro Marshland and the
Kushiro River that gently meanders through it, and encounter rare wildlife
such as Japanese crane and Ezo deer.BTW, don't forget that here is a bear
habitat!
