A feature of parent-child workdays is that parent and child activities are separated during the day. Parents can carry out their “normal work as usual.”
While parents are at work, children will be active at the Myoko National Youth Nature Center.

Experiencing nature-rich rivers and forests will be a special and memorable experience for your child.
In addition, this time, we want everyone to enjoy the summer in Myoko, so we have prepared a program that will be memorable for parents and children, such as a walk around Naena Falls, one of Japan’s top 100 waterfalls, BBQ, and fireworks. Masu.
