Enakyo Wonderland

Enakyo Wonderland is a seasonal amusement park located in Nakatsugawa, Gifu Prefecture, Japan. It began as a field athletics course and later developed into an amusement park, opening in 1970 as Enakyo Land. At its peak in 1991, the park attracted 500,000 visitors annually and featured about 25 attractions, including the Enakyo Ropeway that crossed Enakyo Gorge directly into the park, and a large Ferris wheel. However, due to economic recession and a declining birthrate, visitor numbers fell to less than one-third of the peak, and the park closed on November 30, 2000. A year and a half later, in April 2002, it was renewed and reopened as Enakyo Wonderland by Okamoto Seisakusho, a company specializing in amusement ride refurbishment. The park now offers more than 37 attractions and operates seasonally from mid-March to the last Sunday of November. It is located at 5735-209 Hirakawa, Nakatsugawa, Gifu, about an 8-minute drive from the Ena Interchange on the Chuo Expressway. Access by public transport is difficult; visitors typically take a taxi from Ena Station on the Chuo Main Line. The park is a member of the Japan Amusement Park Association and offers various ticket options, including a One-Day Pass on weekends and holidays and a Tokutoku Pack on weekdays. It also hosts events such as an animal photo contest and holds a First-Class Animal Handling Business registration.
