    The Shibamasa World amusement park in Fukui Prefecture is bringing in some new pool fun on June 30 where guests can look forward to a wet experience swimming and riding the rubber rings next to the wide open Sea of Japan and green laws. They're describing it as like a 'resort' experience. The Monster Wing is a new giant slide arriving this year. There are sudden drops, as well as a wall you'll slide up at 68° and more. They're calling it the "world's first giant combination slide." You'll begin the fun in a 6-person rubber boat at 25m high and speed around the curves before hitting a sudden drop. And just when you think you'll get a breather, you'll be hit again, feeling a sense of weightlessness. The end of the slide connects back to the pools. This is the sequel to The Monster Slider, another slide that appeared in 2016 and was a huge success. They're also teaming up with the internationally beloved Hello Kitty to bring guests something called Hello Kitty Pool Land. The park will also be lit up when the sun goes down this summer with the Summer Night Illuminations. There'll be fireworks too, meaning you can enjoy being at the park all day long.

    Hotel Nampuro is located in Shimabara Onsen in Nagasaki Prefecture and has been around for 110 years. The hotel recently held the grand opening two infinity pools.

Guests can enjoy feeling the sea breeze from ideal locations close amongst Shimabara’s abundance of lush greenery and the Ariake Sea while offering an exquisite resort experience you can’t get in the city. The unique design of the open-air infinity pool makes it seem as if it flows into the sea itself. There’s also an observation deck next to the pool too where people can gaze across the gorgeous waters. The location also makes for a great power and energy spot as one can see the morning sun rise from Kumamoto across the shore. Guests can enjoy the sight in the morning, daytime and nighttime. The other infinity pool is built by the garden restaurant deck terrace and blends in with the surrounding nature. Beyond the horizon lies Shimabara’s waters, sky and nature which becomes one with the edge of the pool. The sky and trees also reflect on the surface of the water, making it feel like you’re floating on top of a cloud in the sky. The pool is around 50cm deep so children can enjoy themselves too. There are also jets fitted on the sides of the pool. The poolside wooden deck is fitted with tables and sofas to enhance that resort feel. They also serve breakfast and there’s a BBQ too. Guests can look forward to the 300+ trees in the garden being lit up in a magical and mystical performance, giving the air a touch of romance.
