Onidake, a place where you can get lost in the starry sky

Onidake, a scoria cone towering over Fukue Island in the Goto Islands. It also has an observatory, which was featured in a movie, where you can enjoy a star-filled sky at night. The area is covered with short-cut grass, so even in summer, there are no annoying insects, making it a comfortable place to lie around and observe the stars. Enjoy the clear Milky Way, unique to this remote island with no city to the south. A car is required to visit. You'll have to climb a few stairs in the pitch black, so dress comfortably and bring a flashlight. Vending machines and restrooms available. #DomesticTravel #Japan #Nagasaki
