Sabae Eyewear Museum and Red Pandas at Nishiyama Park
A full-day course for families to enjoy Sabae, the eyewear town. After exploring the world of domestic eyewear manufacturing at the Eyewear Museum, let loose on the large playground equipment at Nishiyama Park, then warm your hearts with adorable red pandas at Nishiyama Zoo within the park. Wrap up your day at Urushi no Sato Hall in Kawada, the Echizen lacquerware village, where you'll experience the craftsmanship and traditions of skilled artisans. With many indoor attractions, this is a reassuring day out even on rainy days.
