Ako: This is the fun 'Salt Making Experience' in the land of salt, recommended.

You can learn about salt fields from a salt artisan, and it's an experience that adults can enjoy as well. A clay pot filled with seawater from the salt fields is prepared on the stove, and in 20 minutes of experience time, it transforms into snow powder-like salt. Photography was not allowed while the fire was lit. As it gradually became salt, cheers arose from each group. It is also recommended for educational purposes, but there is a condition that adults must accompany, so please be sure to check the official website. You can experience it for free when you enter the Marine Science Museum located in a corner of Ako Seaside Park.
