Iwate Kodomo No Mori ( いわて子どもの森 ) was one of our first adventures in Japan. The direct translation is Iwate Children's Forest. We visited this place on an ITT tour and it was a good introduction to Japan. It is doable to get to on your own and if you have young children, you should check it out at least once in your time in Japan. If you take a toll from Misawa it is about an hour and a half away, but two hours if you stay off the tolls. In our opinion, it is worth skipping the tolls to get here, since it only saves you thirty minutes.
I have a few shots of this place, but no really good pictures that I can currently find.
Google Maps has a lot of excellent pictures to get a feel for this place.
