Ryusendo Cave: One of Japan's Three Great Limestone Caves

📍 Iwaizumi Town, Iwate Prefecture
Round-trip bus fare from Morioka Station to Ryusendo Cave: approximately ¥6,000 (one-way trip takes about 2.5 hours)
Entrance fee: ¥1,100. Inside the cave, the temperature is around 10°C, and the tour takes about 1 hour.
Since the cave is quite cool, it's recommended to bring a jacket, but as you'll be walking and exploring, you might find it comfortable even without one.
There are only about two shops nearby, so grabbing a Fukuda Pan from Morioka Station beforehand is a great idea!
