[Recommended for astronomical observation] Hokutonomizukumi Seaside Park
[Autumn to Winter] The world's rare astronomical show "Hokuto no Mizukami"
This place, where you can enjoy beautiful sandy beaches during the day, is also popular as a starry sky viewing spot that spreads 360 degrees from the observation deck at night. The Big Dipper in the shape of a shaku seems to be drawing water. This sight is located at 33 to 34 degrees north latitude, and can only be seen in a landscape with a horizon in the north. It is said that this condition is met as part of northern Kyushu in the world, including Munakata City. Why don't you take a look at the fantastic starry sky that can only be seen in this area?
