Itoigawa: Fossa Magna Museum and Jade Coast

An all-day parent-child course to fully enjoy the mysteries of stones in Itoigawa, a UNESCO Global Geopark town. In the morning, thoroughly preview real jade and minerals at the Fossa Magna Museum, and visit the great fault line that divides Japan east and west. In the afternoon, try stone hunting along the Jade Coast where waves lap the shore, and finish by viewing the giant jade rough stones and the Japan Sea sunset at Oyashirazu Pier Park. A memorable day where children who love stone hunting and independent research projects will have their eyes sparkling with wonder.
