Captivating Regular Guests Again & Again at Shima Spain Village

Shima Spain Village makes visitors exclaim how it feels like they are traveling abroad even though they are still in Japan. What's more is that theme park enthusiasts overseas praise how visitors can enjoy marvelous shows and ride thrilling roller coasters without waiting in line. Now, there is no doubt that the stellar flamenco shows, parades, and attractions are popular among fans, but the biggest draw for repeating guests is—the combination of Shima Spain Village's realistic streetscapes and its seasonal events. Together they create an exotic atmosphere that is tantalizing and overwhelmingly photogenic!

And now, this autumn, the park has transformed into its most dramatic version, one that appears during its Halloween Fiesta! So here are three highlights that will be sure to captivate even our most loyal guests.

1.) Halloween decorations for the white-walled streets
Reminiscent of the Andalusia region, the park's streets, with their white walls and cobblestones, are adorned with giant jack-o'-lanterns and other autumn decorations. Together, the contrast of the white walls, the blue sky, and the orange pumpkins is sure to create a scene that guests simply can't resist photographing!
(Held twice a day only on weekends and holidays during the event period)

2.) A space to have fun with genuine entertainers
Instead of having a more dark and scary atmosphere that is typically for Halloween, this event offers something different. The cast will have unique Halloween costumes, making it the perfect chance to come and take photos with them before the spooky season ends! Twice a day during this season, they will be out and about.

3.) An autumn-only, Fall Gourmet!
There will be special, adorable sweets limited to just this fall! Also, guests will be able to enjoy w**e and authentic paella made with seasonal ingredients sourced from Ise-Shima. While the park is visually appealing, the food is another major reason why Shima Spain Village attracts returning visitors.

Thus, for this autumn, why not embark on a sophisticated Halloween trip that avoids the crowds and allows you to enjoy the festivities in a smarter way? Everywhere you look, the picturesque, exotic atmosphere and the clear autumn sky of Ise-Shima is bound to be stunning.

Share this article with a friend who is down to enjoy a fun Halloween as you plan your trips. And if you are interested in visiting, we recommend staying at a Miyako Hotels & Resorts location.

Why Nara is Called Japan's Original Scenary
Nara has been drawing attention since the Asuka area was named an UNESCO World Heritage site in July. The region is often described as home to scenery that is reminiscent of Japan's past, but why?

Nara's story begins about 1,300 years ago, when it became Japan's first capital, only for the seat of power to move to Kyoto after roughly 70 years. Most capitals change dramatically over time through large-scale development or wartime damage. Nara, however, was spared major urban development, allowing its ancient buildings and natural surroundings to survive largely intact.

Here are three areas where you can feel that original landscape firsthand.

1) Nara Park: Deer graze across lush green lawns near Kasuga Taisha Grand Shrine and Todaiji Temple, and the sprawling park blends history and nature on a scale found nowhere else.

2) Asuka area: The birthplace of the ancient Japanese state. There are about 19 historical sites scattered about the region, including ruins of the ancient capital and burial mounds, turning the entire town into a living history museum.

3) Mount Yoshino: Long protected as a site of mountain worship, its slopes turn vivid with cherry blossoms in spring and the color of falling leaves in autumn, wrapped in a sacred, breathtaking atmosphere.

Why not travel to Nara and feel this timeless, ancient atmosphere for yourself?
And share this piece of Nara history with someone special.

For your Nara trip, hotels operated by Miyako Hotels & Resorts along the convenient Kintetsu Line are a great home base.

This is the hidden side of Kaiyukan, one you would never see by simply following the standard visitor route. Here, you can feel firsthand the true scale of the tanks and the dedication the Marine Mates, Kaiyukan's staff, bring to caring for its creatures.

What Makes Kashikojima Hojoen Feel Like Another World?

Kashikojima Hojoen is a hot spring inn located in Kashikojima, Mie Prefecture, and it is a place where visitors often say, "It feels just like another world." The biggest reason for this is the Atrium Japanese Garden in the second-floor lobby. For one, there is a waterfall indoors within an atrium that opens from the basement all the way up to the second floor. On either side, are gardens reminiscent of traditional Japanese ones, alongside a tea room. Moreover, there is also a stage that appears to extend out into the atrium itself.

What more can be said about this extraordinary inn that blends traditional Japanese aesthetics and the atmosphere that only an indoor waterfall can have? Well, there is more, for Kashikojima Hojoen is also known for its guest rooms that overlook Ago Bay, one of Japan's finest ria coastlines, and for its natural hot springs. Nonetheless, the Atrium Japanese Garden holds an appeal every bit as compelling.

So, after a soak in the hot springs, we recommend relaxing while gazing at the garden and listening to the sound of the flowing waterfall. You may be surprised at first, but spend some time there, and it will become a place that calms your heart. If you're looking for both a surprise and peace of mind on your trip to Ise-Shima, save this article so you can look back on it anytime.

Along the Shijin Liner's route are Yoshino Station, the final stop, and Asuka Station, allowing visitors to visit both World Heritage Sites on a single journey. This new limited express train packs the romance of ancient Japan into its very design. Let your curiosity about Japan's history and mysteries build during the ride, then enjoy sightseeing once you arrive.

*Please note that depending on the schedule, a different limited express train may run instead of the Shijin Liner, so check the Kintetsu Railway website for details.
