Daizahoshi Pond
A pond at the entrance to the Iizuna Highland, said in legend to have formed when the giant Daidarabotchi sat on Mt. Iizuna and stepped forward, leaving a footprint that filled with water. A path goes round it in about 20 minutes, with campgrounds, boating, a field athletics course and tennis courts nearby.
