#japantrip Visiting Porto Europe in Wakayama felt like stepping into a charming European village! The stunning architecture, colorful streets, and seaside views made it such a magical experience. Everywhere I turned, there were picture-perfect spots that felt straight out of a postcard. The location by the marina added to its charm, with the fresh sea breeze making the walk even more enjoyable. It was such a cozy and relaxing place to explore, perfect for strolling, snapping photos, and enjoying the peaceful vibes. Porto Europe is a hidden gem in Wakayama that offers a beautiful escape with breathtaking views and a unique atmosphere. Definitely worth a visit!

Located next to Wakayama Kuroshio Market, Europa Port is a small theme park brimming with European charm. Designed to resemble a medieval Mediterranean town, it features a French street centered around a fountain plaza, a majestic Spanish castle, and quaint alleyways with staircases perfect for photo ops. Enjoying an ice cream or a cup of coffee while strolling in the sea breeze is a delightful experience. Entrance to Europa Port is free, but the twenty-plus rides inside require individual tickets. Alternatively, you can purchase an unlimited ride pass. The attractions have a bit of an old-school vibe, making it a great place to relive childhood memories. Many of these rides are now rare finds, making it a unique spot for photos. The park isn't very large, so if you're not interested in the rides, a leisurely walk around takes about an hour. It's recommended to plan your visit in conjunction with a trip to Kuroshio Market. 📍 Europa Port / ポルトヨーロッパ 〒641-0014 Wakayama Prefecture, Wakayama City, Kemi 1527 (Nankai Wakayama City Station - Wakayama City Line Bus No. 117 Nankai Wakayama City Station < > Marina Exit) 🏦 Opening Hours: Weekdays 11:00-16:00 / Weekends 11:00-17:00 / Closed on Tuesdays

#Solo trip I went to Porto Europa after the rain😊Festa Luce was being held and the lighting, illuminations and project mapping were so beautiful✨On the way, a pair of women called out to me and I asked them to be my models on short notice (Haru & Mai). They seem to be amateurs, but I hope you will take a look at how to make perfect expressions and poses😊I took photos at all the locations, so it looks like it will be divided into a first, middle and last part, but I hope it will be helpful for how to enjoy Porto Europa and how to take photos♡♡♡……………Photo locationsTitle of work: Festa LuceSpot name: Porto EuropaAddress:Opening hours: 17:30~22:00Illuminations.November is Saturday, Sunday and public holidays.

I went to Porto Europa in Wakayama Prefecture ^ ^ (I'm sorry the quality is poor because the photos from the 5th one onwards are screenshots of a video) I heard there were a lot of photo spots, so I went there since I had time 🥺 The admission was free, but there was a parking fee 😭 As soon as I left the amusement park, a European landscape spread out before me! ... ️ It was a place that could be explored in a short time, so please come and have a BBQ or take some great photos😆👍 🏠 1527 Kemi, Wakayama City, Wakayama Prefecture #DomesticTravel#Wakayama #PortoEurope

Location: Porto Europe, Wakayama Prefecture Admission: Free Wakayama Prefecture, located below Osaka! Would you believe that there is Europe in Wakayama?! It's free! You only need to buy a separate ticket when riding the attraction, so it's like Wolmido in Korea! It's right next to Kuroshio Market, a famous attraction in Wakayama, so it would be better to tour it together! Experience wonderful Europe in the small city of Wakayama👍 #JapanTravel

This remarkable place is the front of an amusement park and consists of a collection of buildings that are a mixture of Italian and French styles, all joined together. The reproduction of an Italian villa is quite impressive. I did not partake of any rides, but the thing with Porto Europa is there are many attractions next to it, so you don't have to spend all your time here unless you have kids. Be sure to visit Kuroshio Fishmarket next door, where you can sample excellent maguro, which Wakayama is famous for. There is a fishing park nearby too, as well as an onsen. #givethanks #givethanks
