Nabana no Sato なばなの里
Nabana no Sato なばなの里 is located at the eastern boundary of Mie-ken Kuwana-shi 三重県 桑名市and is famous for its various species of flowers, the annual fireflies viewing event (Jun/Jul), and the seasonal night illuminations.

This trip is for the fireflies viewing. Unfortunately the fireflies were not too active on that day. It was fun to watch, but very difficult to photo.

The nearest train station are Kuwana station 桑名駅 of JR Kansai-honsen 関西本線 / Kintetsu 近鉄 Nagoya-sen 名古屋線, Nagashima station 長島駅 of JR Kansai-honsen 関西本線, and Kintetsu-Nagashima station 近鉄長島駅 of Kintetsu 近鉄 Nagoya-sen 名古屋線.
