Minō is a city in Osaka (prefecture).

[edit] Get in

Take the Hankyu Takarazuka line to Ishibashi and change to the Minoh Line. Railway buffs take note: this was among the first pieces of the Hankyu railway system.

[edit] Get around

The main sights in Minō can be reached on foot.

[edit][add listing] Do

• Minō Koen 箕面公園 (follow the signposts and hikers from the train station). Quiet, secluded, heavily wooded Minō Park is a great place to get away from the concrete and bustle of the big city. It used to be a getaway for the well-to-do. Easy walking paths follow a burbling brook up to a waterfall, where wild monkeys spend time when they see fit. The park features cedars and momiji (Japanese red maple).
• There's also a small insect museum nearby.
• Minō has a large run-down and expensive onsen (hot-spring) resort.

[edit][add listing] Buy

There are small shops along the path to Minō Koen, with most of the usual souvenirs - albeit with a few more plastic bugs than usual, owing to the insect museum.

[edit][add listing] Eat

The local snack and souvenir specialty is small maple leaves slowly deep fried in batter. It tastes much like you would expect a deep-fried maple leaf to taste. If you feel compelled to try one, get a small quantity.

Travelers may wish to look for accommodations elsewhere, as several major cities are within easy reach (see below).

[edit] Get out

Osaka and Kobe are within easy reach on the Hankyu Line; it's also plausible to day-trip here from Kyoto.
