2.What to see,to do at Asukayama Park
2-1.All season
Let’s get on the monorail called “Asukarugo”
The Asukayama Monorail (Asuka Park Rail) connects the height difference of about 18m from the park entrance to the summit of the JR Oji Station Central Exit, and the rail length of 48m in 2 minutes.
It is called “Asukarugo” because of its slowness(￣▽+￣*)
Don’t miss the Shibusawa Eiichi Museum and Western-style buildings
In Asukayama Park, there are the Shibusawa Eiichi Museum (I forgot to take a photo) and the old Shibusawa Garden.
