What is the Dragondola?

It is the longest gondola in Japan at 5,481 meters, and offers a 5.5-kilometer aerial view of the majestic Mount Tairappoyama, one of the Tanigawa Mountain Range, and the emerald green waters of Lake Futaiko.

Highlights include the mysterious emerald green lake "Lake Nikuiko," the moment of the powerful descent (near Pillar 14), the view from the steep, roller-coaster-like odor, the murmuring of the Kiyotsu River, whose water volume has increased with the melting snow, and the chirping of wild birds.
