Kaiomaru Park

Kaiomaru Park in Toyama exhibits the sailing ship called the "Lady of the Sea," exactly as it was. This ship been in active service until 1989. The park has not only the exhibits to be seen but also experience-oriented programs to participate in, such as a rowing boat class that a professional sailor teaches and a stay-over program wherein you can sleep in a cabin of Kaiomaru. It is lit up at night, and the park gets surrounded in such a romantic atmosphere to be recognized as a sacred place for lovers. Around the park, there is a bird park, community square with an athletic facility, and a place for a picnic.

A Must to See the Lady Decked Out in Full Sail

Since its launch in 1930, Kaiomaru was estimated to have sailed the distance of 50 globe trips for 59 years. She retired in 1989, and since the next year, 1990, she has become an exhibit to be conserved. Events are held 10 times a year and she gets decked up in 29 canvases, which is called "Sohantenpan" in Japanese. You can see a magnificent sight of Kaiomaru.

Enjoy As If You Were a Navigation Master

In a cabin, the view from the topmast, such as 3-dimentional images on the floor and the panorama picture on the whole wall has been recreated, so that you can feel as if you were sailing on Kaiomaru. You can also enter the cockpit and use the binocular telescope, the speaking tube, and other sailing devices like an actual navigator.

Power Spot for Love: Time Bell on Kaiomaru

It is much-talked-about that ringing the "Time Bell" at Kaiomaru's stern brings you happiness. Because Kaiomaru was born on Valentine's Day, many couples are seen ringing the bell of happiness.

Fantastic Light Up

Every night in the park, after dark till 10 o'clock, Kaiomaru is illuminated with 400 LED lights and lit-up by 21 big LED lights, which looks fantastic, quite different from during the day! Why don't you take a commemorative picture of it with the background of Shinminato Bridge which is also lit up?
