Akan National Park

Akan National Park (阿寒国立公園, Akan Kokuritsu Kōen) is a national park located on the island of Hokkaidō, Japan. Akan is a volcanic area with craters spread throughout the forest. The park is famous for its crystal clear lakes, its hot springs, and its large marimo – a type of algae that takes the shape of a ball, which only grow in the northern hemisphere. It is the only place where marimo of appreciable size are formed naturally in Japan.

There are many places in Japan that are beautiful, but none more beautiful than the wonders of nature.
