Ama site park
A large archaeological park with an area the size of five Koshien Stadiums
The site of a large settlement from the early Yayoi period has been turned into a park. The site also includes an exhibition hall that provides an easy-to-understand and entertaining introduction to life at that time.
Basic information
The park is home to stylish cafes and restaurants, as well as large playground equipment where children can play to their heart's content, making it a relaxing place for all kinds of people. The area where the park is located was the site of a large settlement approximately 2,500 years ago (early Yayoi period), and many stone tools and pottery have been discovered there. In order to pass on the existence of these valuable ruins to future generations, the park has set up an "Exhibition Hall" within the grounds that provides an easy-to-understand and entertaining introduction to life at that time. Inside the hall, visitors can enjoy learning about what life was like for people in the past through videos and replica exhibits.
