Japan｜I found the prototype attraction of Hayao Miyazaki’s Hidden Girl on Sado Island~

Still remember in Hayao Miyazaki's animation "The Hidden Girl" The scene where Chihiro floats on the sea in a cute large bathtub? It turns out it’s real~ Bon boats on Sado Island have a long history It can be traced back to the Edo period Islanders who depend on fishing for their livelihood The basin boat was invented based on the washing tub. Used by haenyeo to fish for seaweed, conch, and abalone in the nearby waters Nowadays, it is mostly used for sightseeing~ There are three places on Sado Island where you can take a bon boat ride They are Ogi Port, Yajima, and Shukunegi. We went to Yajima Experience Exchange Center You can take the same picture from Spirited Away ~ Bon boat ride is a very special experience Floating on the sea is more stable than imagined There is a square shape in the middle of the boat transparent glass floor You can see the fish and seaweed swimming below The ride takes less than 10 minutes but is worth the price of admission~ #globaltravel
