It closes at 5PM but the last entry is 4PM, so I was not able to enter. I really wanted to pay to go into prison but they wouldn’t let me in unfortunately. I stood outside the prison looking in wishing I was inside. The prison souvenir shop closes at 4PM too.

Fun place even for kids especially if it's a wet day outside. Narrations are available in English and Japanese.

Visit to understand the architecture and the contributions of the initial prisoners from the Meiji period. There is however limited exhibits on the politics of that period.

A very interesting place that pays tribute to all the prisoners and prison wardens who died while building the new infrastructures of Hokkaido. I learnt a lot by coming here. All the buildings are interesting and you can easily spend 2-3h hours if you read the exhibits.

An impressive place turned into an amazing museum where the atmosphere created underlines the gravity of what happened there but also how foundational this was in hokkaido history. One star less due to the lack of English translations. Still too few...

Very interesting place to visit. If you are in the area, you should definitely stop by (though you probably already on your way). It is well made, and show the brutal history of this place. You should dedication some time here if you decide to stop by.

The Abashiri Prison Museum is truly a rare gem in the world of museums. Before my visit, I hesitated, questioning whether I should explore a place with a history tied to human rights concerns. However, upon stepping inside, my perspective underwent a profound transformation. The museum provided a profound education on the history of Hokkaido's development and the darker aspects of its past, where prisoners were inhumanely exploited for progress. As I delved deeper into the museum's exhibits, I was confronted with the harsh realities of prison life and the toll it took on those incarcerated within its walls. Through artifacts, photographs, and poignant displays, I gained insight into the struggles faced by prisoners and the role they unwittingly played in shaping Hokkaido's landscape. One of the museum's most compelling features was its ability to provoke introspection and foster dialogue about issues of justice and human dignity. By confronting the uncomfortable truths of the past, the museum challenges visitors to reflect on the ethical implications of progress at any cost. Despite my initial reservations, I left the Abashiri Prison Museum with a newfound appreciation for its educational value and the importance of confronting difficult histories. It is a place where visitors can bear witness to the injustices of the past and pledge to create a more equitable future. If you're intrigued by the complexities of Hokkaido's history and the resilience of the human spirit, I urge you to set aside any hesitations and experience the Abashiri Prison Museum for yourself. It's a journey that promises to challenge your preconceptions and inspire meaningful reflection.

A valued must visit museum. I take about 3 hours to look around all details Must check the bus time table back to Abishiri station is 13:59

Interesting place to see if you’re in the area. However I wouldn’t go out of my way to see it. The museum area is large and only accessible by bus or taxi. Allow 1-2 hours to look around here.

Must visit, must see. The main purpose of coming to Abashiri. Please read the history below. History: In April 1890, the Meiji government sent over a thousand political prisoners to the isolated Abashiri village and forced them to build roads linking it to the more populous south. Initial conditions were extremely harsh, with insufficient food and rest, and over 200 prisoners died of malnutrition, accidents and as punishment for attempting to escape. Abashiri Prison later became known for being a self-sufficient farming prison, and was cited as a model for others throughout Japan. Most of the prison burned down in a 1909 fire, but it was reconstructed in 1912. Previously known as Abashiri Kangoku (網走監獄), it took on its current name in 1922. In 1984, the prison moved to a modern reinforced concrete complex. In 1983, older parts of the prison were relocated to the base of Mount Tento and operate as a museum called the Abashiri Prison Museum (博物館網走監獄). It is the only prison museum in the country. As of 2016, eight of the buildings preserved at the museum are designated Important Cultural Property by the Agency for Cultural Affairs, while three are registered Tangible Cultural Property.

Interesting museum, can spend a couple of hours roaming the grounds and buildings, but probably wouldn't go again.

A historical place where is food for everyone to learn not only about the history of Japan, but we can also build a moral culture from coming here. This place has kind of a long history of itself and those are shown on every inches. The sadness and loneliness come out of the walls. It's cold and give me some kind of feelings that the children might not like this place so much. But it's a great experience coming here

Once in a lifetime experience if you get spare time on your trip.

I came here in winter, 2020. Just little scared because there's a lot of statue. But, the view is amazing. Beautiful scenery. The museum is so wide.

Haha honestly to say, in fact this museum looks huge but it's only basement has 3 things to explore, the movie that shows the drift ice for 8 mins, then some explanation for sea creatures plus self experience touching the drift ice and towel spinning at -15 degrees, since the entrance fee is not expensive, Why not stop by for little fun experience, I recommend you to take a 10% discount coupon at hotel or tourist center.

A great museum to learn about the wildlife and drift ice of the area. Many displays have English, including the professionally-produced video. There is a drift ice experience room, where they keep the temperature well below freezing and give you a damp towel which you can swing around and see what funny shape it freezes in. The small aquarium also functions as a 3D video screen that the staff can operate (you can ask them to show you if it's not busy); you can see a diver's science excursion in the sea. The free observation deck upstairs has a nice view, and the ice cream from the cafe is a light salt-caramel flavor.

Very informative and interesting Free parking Entrance fee ¥750 per adult, it is worth it, great for family visit, displaying many deep sea uncommon fish and others, surely you will not disappoint, saw many local Japanese tourists Do try their specialty Ice Cream. Highly recommend, an must see place in Abashiri !

For those interested in the sea angel (clione) and learning about drift ice, this museum is worth a visit. Although it's not a large museum, the exhibits are informative and engaging. The museum offers a theatre that shows a documentary about drift ice with subtitles in different languages, including English. You can also explore several small aquariums featuring sea creatures from the Okhotsk Sea and visit an ice room where you can swing a towel and witness it freeze, which is a unique and enjoyable experience. The observatory deck can be accessed without purchasing a ticket and you can enjoy a stunning panoramic view of the Okhotsk Sea, with drift ice stretching out for several kilometers. The majestic Shiretoko mountain range serves as a dramatic backdrop, completing the breathtaking scenery. If you're a fan of salted caramel flavor, you'll love the ice cream sold on the first floor - it's absolutely delicious! Overall, I recommend this museum to anyone who wants to learn more about drift ice and see some incredible sea creatures, particularly the cute and charming sea angel.

Taken in feb. Amazing place to learn more about the drift ice. We just arrived here from shiretoko where we saw all the drift ice coming in a few days ago. Its very informative to learn about this. The observatory at the top provides amazing views to the highlands of shiretoko as well as the ranges of akan-manshu. Loved the soft serve ice cream there as well. Overall a must not miss location.

Didn’t get to enter as it was closing time but the view was worth it

A small museum where you can see some rare marine animals. Facilities to experience the cold winter temperatures. Generally speaking, it is a small and exquisite scenic spot, so you can just stop by and visit it.

View from the observatory is just amazing. They have some very unique projection describing the migration of the ice. Here you can touch ice that has migrated to japan and experience a room where this os kept at ~-15 degree Celsius. Quite an experience! Recomended!

The museum is excellent. I really enjoy in there. We can see the organism that lives in the Okhotsk Sea. In the basement, there is a theatre room (show video every 20 minutes); it has real (I don't know to say) floating ice (?). We can go to a special room which has a temperature -18 to -20°C. Really cool. On the top floor, we can see Abashiri Lake and the Okhotsk Sea. There is also a 360 restaurant. The food is delicious. Fantastic!!

(Translated by Google) Roadside station near the mouth of the Abashiri River. There is a tourist information center, a local specialty product sales corner, a restaurant, etc., and ships are moored in the Abashiri River. The manhole in the passage facing the parking lot is a Pokemon-designed one (Weavile and Arora Vulpix). As a roadside station, it has an unusual structure where ships are moored, and you can see Hat Rock from the parking lot when you look toward the Sea of ​​Okhotsk. It can be said that it is an excellent roadside station where you can enjoy the facilities that can be used for multiple purposes and the magnificent scenery that is rich in variety from the estuary to the Sea of ​​Okhotsk. (Original) 網走川河口付近にある道の駅。 観光案内所や地元の特産品販売コーナー・レストランなどがあり、網走川には船舶が係留されている。 駐車場に面した通路のマンホールがポケモンをデザインされたもの(マニューラとアローラロコン)になっている。 道の駅としては船が停泊する珍しい構造になっており、駐車場からオホーツク海方向を見ると帽子岩を眺めることができる。 多目的に利用できる施設と河口からオホーツク海にかけての変化に富んだ雄大な景色も堪能できる優れた道の駅と言える。

Souvenir shops and restaurant are there. In winter, there is a ferry station for crusing.

(Translated by Google) Visit 2022/05 As a local T-shirt collector, it was a roadside station where I was worried about the product lineup. Buy Abashiri Prison Cap! The habit of the hat has been damaged and it has tickled my purchasing motivation (laughs). I'm not good at cold weather, but it was a roadside station where I wanted to come on an icebreaker. There are restaurants around, so if it's not noisy at night, it's not a bad point to stay in the car. Nowadays, I have more chances to hear about it due to the accident, but I think it is a very good place as a fishing port and a tourist spot. There are quite a few roadside stations with a pleasure boat platform all over the country, but I hope you will continue to do your best here as well. There is a commemorative ticket (Original) 2022/05訪問 ご当地Tシャツコレクターとしては品揃えが気になる道の駅でした。 網走監獄キャップを購入！帽子のくせにダメージ加工が施されており購買意欲をくすぐられてしまいました(笑) 寒いのは苦手なのですが砕氷船に乗りに来たいと感じる道の駅だった。 周囲には飲食店もあり、夜間に騒がしくなければ車中泊にも悪くないポイントと思う。 今は件の事故で耳にする機会が増えている地ですが、漁港としても観光地としても非常にいい場所と思う。 遊覧船乗り場併設の道の駅は全国各地に結構ありますが、ここも末永く頑張ってほしい。 記念切符あり

(Translated by Google) The Abashiri River and the mouth of the Sea of ​​Okhotsk are in front of you, so you can see hat rocks and drift ice. There is also a sightseeing boat Aurora Terminal, so you can see the Aurora boats anchored even outside the period. In addition, the "Poke Lid" manhole and the set of the movie "Kita no Sakuramori" are also in the facility. The souvenir corner has Abashiri beer, dairy products developed by Abashiri Agricultural University, local seafood, and "Golden Kamuy" goods. The frozen pack "Kinjirushiyama Wasabi" is cheap at 300 yen, and the clerk recommended it because it tastes like authentic mountain wasabi. There are also Hokkaido classics such as cute long-tailed cookies and "Shiroi Koibito" and "ROYCE". The second floor is a dining room. There are mini seafood bowls and ramen, so if you don't have time, you can finish it quickly here. (Original) 目の前が網走川、オホーツク海河口なので帽子岩や流氷など眺めることができます。観光船オーロラターミナルも併設されており、期間外でも停泊したオーロラ船を見ることができます。そのほか『ポケふた』マンホールや映画『北の桜守』セットも施設内にあります。 お土産コーナーは、網走ビールをはじめ、網走農大開発の乳製品、地元の海産物、『ゴールデンカムイ』グッズなど置いています。冷凍パックの『金印山わさび』は300円と安く、本格的な山わさびの味わいとのことで店員さんがおすすめしてくれました。 シマエナガの可愛いクッキーや『白い恋人』『ROYCE』などの北海道定番商品もありますのでぜひ網走へお越しの際は周辺の観光店(ガラス工房、炉端焼き)を含め立ち寄っていただきたいです。 2階は食堂となっています。ミニ海鮮丼やラーメンなどありますので時間がないときはこちらでさっと済ませても良いかと思います。

(Translated by Google) It is a roadside station that overlooks the Sea of ​​Okhotsk and Shiretoko. The parking lot is wide, but it is quite crowded in the summer. The food court on the 2nd floor of the roadside station and the take-out corner on the 1st floor are full of local gourmet food. Drift ice floats on the blue curry that expresses the Sea of ​​Okhotsk (!?) The Okhotsk drift ice curry has an impact! In addition, there is the Abashiri burger with pink salmon, Chinese yam and mountain wasabi, and the Abashiri burger with zangi and wasabi mayonnaise accented with onions and cheese. Enjoy chicken burger easily ◎🍔 Michi-no-Ekiben with crab and salmon roe is a great deal for just one coin^^ (Original) オホーツク海や知床を一望できる道の駅です。駐車場は広めですが夏場はかなり混雑しています。道の駅内の2階のフードコートや1階のテイクアウトコーナーではご当地グルメも充実しています。オホーツク海を表現した青いカレーに流氷が浮かぶ(!?) オホーツク流氷カリー は、インパクトあり!!　そのほか、カラフトサーモンに長芋や山わさびを合わせた網走バーガーやザンギとワサビマヨに玉ねぎ･チーズがアクセントの網走チキンバーガーはお手軽に味わえて◎🍔 カニとイクラが乗った道の駅弁はワンコインでお得です^^

(Translated by Google) I like it very much. I went there almost every day during my 4 night stay. It's a bus from the station, but you get off at the front and walk for about 2 minutes. There is also a wide variety of souvenirs. Lunch is a self-service meal where you buy a ticket from a vending machine. The target is crab rice. ID is required to rent a bicycle. This is a base packed with all the delicious parts of your trip. There was a Pokemon manhole in the back. (Original) とても好きです。４泊の滞在中ほぼ毎日通いました。駅からはバスですが、手前で降りて二分ほど歩く感じ。 お土産も種類豊富。 ランチは自動販売機でチケット先に買うセルフ方式。目当てはカニ飯。 レンタサイクルは身分証明書必要。 旅の美味しいとこがギュットつまった拠点です。 裏にポケモンマンホールありました。

cool

(Translated by Google) It is located close to JR Abashiri Station and Abashiri Prison. It is said to be a very popular roadside station. It's a very clean, convenient roadside station with a wide selection of products and good service. There is also a tourist information center and a restaurant on the second floor. The hat rock that can be seen from the window is also cute, so be sure to check it out 👒 (Original) JR網走駅や網走監獄にもほど近い位置にあります。とても人気のある道の駅とのこと。とてもキレイで、商品の品揃えも豊富、サービスもよく、便利な道の駅です。 観光案内所も併設されており、２階にはレストランもあります。窓からひょっこり見える帽子岩も可愛らしいので要チェックです👒

(Translated by Google) This roadside station is famous for being the boarding point for the drift icebreaker Aurora. There is also a food court and souvenir shop, where you can try the famous Abashiri Champon. I had the Zangi bowl. It had four large pieces of salmon zangi and was very filling. Very long waiting lines form as Aurora's departure time approaches. The interior of the Aurora is larger than I expected, and you can even go out onto the deck and enjoy the drift ice. (Original) 流氷砕氷船おーろら号の乗車場所として有名な道の駅です。 フードコートやお土産屋も併設しており、名物網走ちゃんぽんなどを食べられます。 私はザンギ丼を頂きました。大きめの鮭のザンギが4つ乗っておりボリュームがありました。 おーろらの出発時間間近になると非常に長い待機列が形成されます。 おーろら号の船内は思ったより広く甲板にも出て流氷を楽しめます。

(Translated by Google) I visited with a friend on a sunny afternoon! ️ The drift ice has completely disappeared, and the sea has changed into a spring-like atmosphere 👍 It's a little chilly, but it really feels like early spring 🙆 A souvenir for another friend ☀️ She looked nice with her long hair tied up in a single bun, so I had a faint hope that she would use a hair tie 💨 😊 Having soft serve ice cream with a friend ⤴️ It seems that the ice cream shop Leemo, which has a store nearby, is supervised 😄 Mixed soft serve ✨ The vanilla and light green color might be mint ❗ I'm so excited ⤴️⤴️ Full of milky taste Vanilla and gentle mint flavor 🎵 The mint itself doesn't make much of a statement, so it's okay even for people who don't like mint. ☺️Maybe😃 Next time, I think I'll try Ramune Soft👍 I came here unexpectedly, but I made some new discoveries and had a nice break🙆 (Original) 天気のいい午後😃友人と訪れました‼️ 流氷は、すっかり姿を消して、海は春仕様に様変わり👍少し肌寒いのが、本当に初春と言った感じ🙆 別の友人にお土産を☀️長い髪を一本にまとめていた彼女が、素敵に見えたので、ヘアゴムを💨使ってくれたらいいなと淡い期待を寄せながら😊 友人とソフトクリームを⤴️近くに店を構えているリーモというアイスクリームのお店が監修しているそう😄ミックスソフトを✨バニラと薄い緑色は、ミントではないか❗と盛り上がる⤴️⤴️ミルク感たっぷりのバニラと優しい味わいのミント🎵ミント自身があまり主張しない仕上がりになっていて、ミントが苦手な人でも大丈夫？☺️かな😃 次は、ラムネソフトにも挑戦しようかな、と👍 思いがけずに訪れましたが、発見もあり、いい休みとなりました🙆

(Translated by Google) This roadside station is located at the mouth of the Abashiri River, and is expected to be a relatively large commercial facility in this area. Since I was staying in my car, I didn't use the facilities other than the restrooms and information, but it was spacious and clean. There is a large parking lot, and there is a 7-Eleven within walking distance, so even if the roadside station is closed at night, there is no inconvenience in getting supplies. Also, the Roadside Station Tourist Information Center sells garbage bags for a fee during business hours, and if you purchase one, they will collect the garbage you generate when sleeping in your car. Basically, there are no trash cans at roadside stations, so I'm very grateful for this kind of service. After that, I also used it when I was opening a business. It was a very good roadside station, where you could fully enjoy the bounty of Okhotsk at the souvenir corner, and the restaurant served local Abashiri gourmet food. The restaurant's favorites are Abashiri Champon and Abashiri Zangidon. Zangi-don is made with salmon zangi, so it's different from the usual fried chicken. There is also a Pokemon manhole on the east side of the facility, and the Pokemon depicted are Manula and Alolan Vulpix. (Original) 網走川の河口にある道の駅、この界隈では比較的大きめの商業施設になる模様。 車中泊利用したため施設はトイレとインフォメーション程度鹿利用はしていませんが広々していてきれいで良い感じ。駐車場も広く、徒歩圏内にセブンイレブンもあるので夜道の駅が閉まっていても補給に不便は無いです。 あと道の駅観光案内所営業時間内であればゴミ袋を有料で販売していて、それを購入すれば車中泊などで出たゴミを回収してくれます。基本的に道の駅にはゴミ箱がないのでこういうサービスは非常にありがたいですね👍 その後、開業しているときにも利用しました。お土産物コーナーではオホーツクの恵みを存分に楽しむことができるし、レストランも網走ご当地グルメを堪能できてなかなか良い道の駅でした。レストランの押しは網走ちゃんぽん、網走ザンギ丼。ザンギ丼は鮭ザンギなので普通のからあげ的なやつとは異なる。 施設の東側にはポケモンマンホールもあり、描かれているポケモンはマニューラとアローラロコンです。

(Translated by Google) You can take a boat to hit the drifting ice. It’s actually nothing. It depends on whether you like it or not. The red bean cakes sold in the store are delicious. (Original) 可以坐船撞流冰，其實沒什麼，就看個人喜不喜歡，商店賣的紅豆餅好吃

(Translated by Google) We boarded Abashiri's drift ice sightseeing icebreaker ship ``Aurora'' and took a cruise in the Sea of ​​Okhotsk. Abashiri is located at 44 degrees north latitude, and the Okhotsk coast is the southernmost point where the sea freezes. The situation is such that you can enjoy the shocking dazzle of drift ice that appears on the frigid Amur River and then turns into white land and heads south from the drift ice sightseeing icebreaker ship "Aurora", but unfortunately, the drift ice itself is almost far off the coast. It seemed like it had just flowed away. Freshwater flowing into the Sea of ​​Okhotsk from the Amur River, the largest river in the Far East that flows along the border between China and Russia, freezes and grows larger as it moves south. It appears that a mysterious white figure can be seen along the coast of Okhotsk around late January. It operates from late January to late March every year. A variety of wild animals also appear depending on the time of year when the drift ice arrives. You can also see the clione, the angel of the ice, as well as seals, other marine mammals, and birds standing on the ice. (Original) 網走の流氷観光砕氷船「おーろら」に乗り、オホーツク海の海上遊覧しました。 網走は北緯44度にあり、オホーツク沿岸は海が凍る南限になっています。 極寒のアムール川に登場し、やがて白い大地となって南下する流氷の衝撃的な眩しさを流氷観光砕氷船「おーろら」から堪能するというシチュエーションですが、流氷そのものは生憎、ほとんど沖合遠くに流れてしまったばかりのようでした。 中国とロシアの国境を流れる極東最大の大河アムール川から、オホーツク海に注ぐ淡水が氷結し、南下するに連れて大きく成長する模様です。 1月下旬頃に白く神秘的な姿をオホーツク沿岸に見せるようです。 例年1月下旬〜3月下旬まで運航されています。 流氷が来る時期に合わせて様々な野生の動物たちも顔を見せます。 流氷とともにやってくる流氷の天使クリオネをはじめ、アザラシなどの海獣類や鳥類等が、流氷の上で佇む姿を見ることもできます。

Amazing spot that's worth a small detour! saw an eagle soaring in the area.

A nice view point, a short drive from Abashiri. Do take the 10 minute walk to the statue, it offers a great photo point of the lighthouse.

If you come here in the winter like i did, you Will not regret it at all. Simply beautiful and stunning view

The grounds were pretty. The lighthouse was closed when we went so we weren’t able to go inside.

If you love seaside view or natural view, do drop by if you have time!

You can see the ice on the sea during winter here.

Nice day for Winter ❄️ photos at Cape Notoro. Lots of Drift Ice, from Amur River from E. Russia to Hokkaido

so cool，but view is good

Definitely worth the time to come here! Take a slow walk and enjoy the wind. There is a toilet too!

Work historic old station that is probably the station closest to the sea. Limited facility with onlY one common toilet and a restaurant. Very good for photo taking on a hot sunny day. Visited by tour buses. Recommended stop 10mins

A small railway station with a small cafe called Teishaba. You won't be entertained if you do not buy food or drink in the cafe. No special scenery there. A wooden observatory deck is stood next to the station, it is free of charge. Free parking is also available for visitors. It is not bad to see the Sea of Okhotsk with summer breeze in the warm season. Meanwhile, drift ice floating on the sea can be seen from the beach in winter time.

do not miss here

Film shooting venue

(Translated by Google) A station only 20 meters from the Sea of ​​Okhotsk. It is one of the most famous places that has been used as a filming location for many movies. Even in mid-May, the wind is as cold as winter in Honshu. Winter clothing is required. We had coffee at a cafe in the station building.

(Translated by Google) The oldest wooden building station on the JR Hokkaido Senmo Line. If you ride the winter sightseeing train Ryuhyo Monogatari, it will stop for 10 minutes, so you can climb up to the observation deck at Kitahama Station and view the drift ice and the Shiretoko Mountain Range. There is a small coffee shop inside, and many railway fans come to see it. The crowded waiting room with business cards pasted on it is a must-see.

(Translated by Google) Kitahama Station, facing the Sea of ​​Okhotsk, is a station with a view of drift ice, which is rare in Japan. About 20 minutes by train from Abashiri. When you get off to the platform, the Sea of ​​Okhotsk, white with ice, spreads out across your field of vision. When you enter the waiting room, the walls and ceiling are filled with business cards and tickets. There are also many signs in foreign languages, probably because it was used as a filming location for Chinese movies. Although the station is unmanned, there is a coffee shop next to the waiting room and an observation deck next to the station building. Even when the train is not coming, you can park your car in front of the station and go up to the observation deck to see the scenery. (Original) オホーツク海に面する北浜駅は、日本でも珍しい「流氷の見える駅」です。網走から列車で約20分。ホームに降りると、氷で真っ白になったオホーツク海が視界いっぱいに広がります。 待合室に入ると、壁や天井には名刺や切符が所狭しと貼られています。中国映画のロケにも使われたためか外国語の張り紙も多数あります。無人駅ですが待合室の隣には喫茶店があり駅舎の隣には展望台も併設されています。列車の来ない間にも、駅前に車を停めて展望台に上がり風景を見ることができます。

There are many business cards of visitors pasted inside the station building. There is also an observation deck. In winter, a sightseeing train called Ryuhyo Monogatari runs and stops at this station for about 10 minutes. The station is also a stopover spot for bus tours, so the station gets very crowded when the Drift Ice Story arrives. If the weather is good in winter, you can see a spectacular view of drift ice, trains, and mountains in the Shiretoko area.

(Translated by Google) In autumn, we visited Lake Notori, which is dyed red. It is home to the largest coral grass colony. I have been here several times in early September, always hoping to have a chance to meet them, but always only met sporadic red ones. This year it was a little earlier, about a week, in early September 2019. I was lucky enough to see this entire patch of coral red. The sun was just getting ready to rise early in the morning, and a group of photographers had already come here to take pictures of the red lakeside and surrounding areas. Waterbirds and kites flying in the sky, and in winter you can also watch the yellow-billed swans taking refuge in the winter Walking on the wooden plank road, you can go deep into the lake at close range and see the beautiful coral grass groups that are once seen every year but are short-lived. The wetland in the lake is the largest habitat for the growth of coral grass. The rich nature comes from the surrounding forests. Rich plankton and aquatic plant communities form a complete ecosystem, which also produces many delicious shellfish (Original) 秋天網走遍染紅妝的能取湖 是最大規模的珊瑚草群生地 以往來了數次的9月初，總是希望有機會遇見，卻總是只遇見零星的紅 今年略為提早了些，大約一星期，2019.9月初很幸運的意外見到了這整片的珊瑚紅，一大清早的陽光才正準備昇起，已經有著一群攝影師來到這裡拍攝抹紅的湖畔及空中飛翔的水鳥、鳶群等，在冬季也能觀賞避冬的黃嘴天鵝 走在木棧道能近距離的深入湖中，見到這一年一見又短暫的美麗珊瑚草群生，能取湖的濕地是珊瑚草生長中最大的棲息環境，豐富的自然來自於週邊的森林，浮游生物豐富及水生植物群落形成一完整生態系，所以也產出了許多美味的貝類
