The Miné-Akiyoshidai Karst Plateau Geopark Center “Karstar” is a tourist information center that shares information about the geopark with visitors. There is a café and a free resting area, as well as large windows from which you can enjoy a panoramic view of the great nature of Akiyoshidai Karst Plateau. The name “Karstar” is a combination of “karst” and “star,” and represents our hope that the Geopark Center will serve as a landmark that guides visitors to the geopark, just like the first star of the evening that shines over the Akiyoshidai Karst Plateau.
The center not only serves as a tourist information center, but also provides an extensive space where you can relax while enjoying a wonderful view of Akiyoshidai Karst Plateau.
There is a café in the building, and visitors are also welcome to use the space as a free resting area.
Free Wi-Fi is available within the building.
Why not relax with a cup of coffee while enjoying the scenery of Akiyoshidai Karst Plateau?
