ipe.jpgA 5m high and 370m long promenade that crosses the park. The floor of the promenade is made of a tree called Ipe. It's a strange name, but it's a hidden bestseller that's used in famous spots such as Yokohama Ojibashi and Umihotaru Kobe Harborland!

This tree can be found near the Amazon, and is hard and heavy, and can sink into water. It also has excellent durability, with no need to paint it lasts for about 30 years. I use it on Bear Mountain without painting, but it's not a problem at all. How many trains are used on the 370m long boardwalk course? I'd like to count it. If you have time, why not give it a try?
