About this place

Umihotaru Parking Area (Umihotaru PA) is a parking area of the Tokyo Bay Aqua-Line at Umihotaru (Kisarazu Artificial Island), off Nakajima, Kisarazu, Chiba Prefecture. Although it is a parking area, its shops and facilities are on a par with or larger than those of a service area. It has become a tourist spot with an observation deck, monuments, the Bell of Happiness, Umi-megane (Aqua-Line Theater), and local gourmet food. It is designated a Japan Night View Heritage site.
