Kejonuma Leisure Land, Abandoned amusement park in Osaki, Japan.
Kejonuma Leisure Land is an abandoned amusement park in Osaki that now stands in a heavily decayed state. The site contains remnants of a ferris wheel, a carousel, a go-kart track, and a golf range, all exposed to the elements for decades.
The park operated between 1979 and 2000, drawing up to 200,000 guests per year during its peak. It closed its gates due to falling visitor numbers and competition from larger facilities in the region.
The name Kejonuma translates to Pond of the Ghost Woman in Japanese, referring to an old regional legend centered on the nearby body of water. Visitors notice this connection through scattered signage still standing on the grounds that mention the folk tale.
The site lies in a remote area, requiring careful planning of arrival by car or taxi. Visitors should wear sturdy footwear and watch for uneven ground and loose structures.
Nature has reclaimed large parts of the grounds, with grasses and shrubs growing through concrete and asphalt. This interplay of rusted rides and overgrown greenery gives the place an unusual appearance.
