560代Month of posting: 2025/08The quiet electric car allowed us to meet the Amami rabbit and other animals very close by without startling them. We were able to get in and out quickly and acted quickly. We were able to see more than 10 Amami herons. They were cute - ❤️. He also introduced other endemic species that are only found in Amami. The rich nature, kind people, Oshima silk, and Amami Oshima made me like it more.

560代Month of posting: 2025/08My mother and I took the night tour with an electric car starting at 7:30pm. We arrived earlier than planned, Oku, the person in charge, arrived early, and we left a little earlier, just as the sun was setting. The electric car was quiet and close to the ground, and we saw more than 15 Amami Owl rabbits. We were advised that a video is recommended rather than a photo, and we were able to see many cute figures. We also encountered owls, newts, frogs, tadpoles, crabs, hermit crabs, rats, and fireflies. Mr. Oku told us about the history of Amami and we learned the meaning of preserving nature. It was my first visit to Amami Oshima, but there was so much nature and everyone was so kind that it became a wonderful memory for me. Thank you very much.
