It is only 3km to the heritage site, and it has rich flora and fauna quite similar to those in the core zone of the site. The forest of the park is a secondary mixed forest compose of Fagus crenata, <span class=\"italic\">Quercus crispula<\/span>, <span class=\"italic\">Magnolia obovata<\/span>, <span class=\"italic\">Cercidiphyllum japonicum<\/span>, etc. In some area, Cryptomeria japonica and Larix kaempferi are planted. Asian black bears <span class=\"italic\">(Ursus thibetanus)<\/span>, Japanese serows <span class=\"italic\">(Capricornis crispus)<\/span>, Japanese macaques <span class=\"italic\">(Macaca fuscata)<\/span> and many other small animals inhabit the forest. Vestiges of human activities in natural forests such as traces of the traditional hunters, \u201cMatagi\u201ds, and remnants of charcoal kilns can also be found in the Park.<\/p>\n<p>The Park is open to the public. We hope that many people will visit our place and appreciate the true value of \u201cShirakami-Sanchi\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>    <a href=\"access.html\" class=\"arrow\">Access<\/a>\n    <\/div>\n<\/div>\n<h4>Map of The Shirakami Natural Science Park<\/h4>\n<div class=\"box_map\">\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/nature.hirosaki-u.ac.jp\/shirakami\/wp-content\/themes\/shirakami\/english\/assets\/img\/contents\/garden_map.jpg\" alt=\"Map of The Shirakami Natural Science Park\" \/>\n<\/div>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/nature.hirosaki-u.ac.jp\/shirakami\/wp-content\/themes\/shirakami\/english\/assets\/img\/contents\/map.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"download\" rel=\"noopener\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/nature.hirosaki-u.ac.jp\/shirakami\/wp-content\/themes\/shirakami\/english\/assets\/img\/contents\/map_download.png\" alt=\"Download\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<h3>Contact<\/h3>\n<table>\n<tr>\n<th>Location<\/th>\n<td>101-1 Kawaratai, Nishimeya Village, Aomori Pref., 036-1424, JAPAN<br \/>\n    <a href=\"access.html\" class=\"arrow\">Access<\/a><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<th>TEL<\/th>\n<td>+81-172-85-2008<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<th>Open<\/th>\n<td>A.M. 9:00 &#8211; P.M. 4:00<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<th>Close<\/th>\n<td>Every Monday<br \/>\u203bThis park is closed from December to Next April. <\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/table>\n<p><a href=\"about.html\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/nature.hirosaki-u.ac.jp\/shirakami\/wp-content\/themes\/shirakami\/english\/assets\/img\/contents\/bn_about.jpg\" alt=\"About Us\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>HomeThe Shirakami Natural Science Park The Shirakami Natural Science Park About the Shirakami Natural Science  [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":10,"featured_media":0,"parent":461,"menu_order":2,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"page-english.php","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/nature.hirosaki-u.ac.jp\/shirakami\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/1426"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/nature.hirosaki-u.ac.jp\/shirakami\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/nature.hirosaki-u.ac.jp\/shirakami\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/nature.hirosaki-u.ac.jp\/shirakami\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/10"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/nature.hirosaki-u.ac.jp\/shirakami\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1426"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/nature.hirosaki-u.ac.jp\/shirakami\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/1426\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1635,"href":"https:\/\/nature.hirosaki-u.ac.jp\/shirakami\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/1426\/revisions\/1635"}],"up":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/nature.hirosaki-u.ac.jp\/shirakami\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/461"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/nature.hirosaki-u.ac.jp\/shirakami\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1426"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
