Hellooooo from Nago Pineapple Park Okinawa!!!

I heard it’s quite fun here, so I came to see it with my own eyes^^

Arriving at the parking lot, I took this fancy bus to the entrance.

This “Pineapple car” does not only drive you to the entrance, but also shows you around the park including its vast pineapple fields with a catchy Pineapple-song♪♪ The driver is a very good guide!

↓Inside the park, I took an auto-drive cart and saw various kinds of tropical plants, flowers, and, of course, pretty pineapples!!! I never thought pineapples grow on the ground… I thought they grow on a tree…

 

Then you encounter this catchy Pineapple Song!!!

 

↓Walking around the park, I met this little funny mimicking pineapple girl!

 

SHISA, Okinawan Lions are everywhere!! They are found only in Okinawa, not elsewhere in Japan. Shisa is an amulet, also the symbol of Okinawa!!!

 

↓Oh, the quiz was interesting. Can you answer it?

↓Here is the answer.

③ is the most delicious. Pineapples mature from the bottom.

② normally looks the most delicious, but it’s not in case of a pineapple.

① is not very sweet.

 

OK, try another one!

↓Here is the answer.

Left: This pineapple is not mature yet. It’s not sweet or sour.

Middle: This pineapple tastes the best!

Right: This pineapple is too mature. It doesn’t taste very well.

 

↓So, time to try some pineapple!!!

Nom Nom… Yum Yum!!!

 

By the way, there is a “Shell Pavilion” in this park, too. It was a lot more fun than I thought it!!

↓There are various kinds of shell displayed here.

I have never seen such a beautiful display!! If you go visit this pavilion, I’m sure you’ll be amazed!!!

 

Nago Pineapple Park was established in 1979. It’s very enjoyable, because they know how to entertain customers from the long experience:D

Hope you’ll enjoy it someday!!!
