  • 9. Kushiro Shitsugen National Park Hokkaido
    Kushiro-shitsugen National Park is a national park located in the east of the island of Hokkaido, Japan. It was designated as a national park on 31 July 1987. The park is known for its wetlands ecosystems.Kushiro-shitsugen covers an area of 268.61 square kilometres on the Kushiro Plain and contains the largest tracts of reedbeds in Japan. The Kushiro River , which originates in Lake Kussharo, meanders through much of the park. During the Ramsar Convention of 1980, in which Japan participated, the park was first registered as a peatland with raised bogs. In 1967, the wetlands themselves had been designated as a national natural monument. For that reason, access is strictly limited and the landscape, most typical of Hokkaido, has been preserved.
