Hokkaido Green Land, Amusement park in Iwamizawa, Japan.
Hokkaido Green Land offers a collection of rides and attractions in Iwamizawa spread across themed sections. The facility extends over forested terrain with paths connecting different zones for visitors of varying ages.
The park began as a regional leisure destination for families in Hokkaido and expanded its offerings over subsequent decades. Large rides were added gradually to keep pace with other Japanese amusement facilities.
The name combines the Japanese word for northern island with English greenery, reflecting the forested surroundings. Families often treat the park as an all-day outing, using picnic areas between rides for extended stays.
Visitors should wear comfortable shoes, as the terrain includes slopes and longer walks between sections. Weekends and holidays draw larger crowds, while weekdays offer shorter wait times.
One of the roller coasters runs through dense tree canopies and uses the natural topography for unexpected turns. The track layout follows the original hills rather than leveling them.
