Manda Pit is a place where you can feel the history of coal mining that continued through the Meiji, Taisho, and Showa eras.
Today, it is a quiet historical site, but in the past, coal was mined and transported here, supporting many jobs that contributed to local life and Japan's industry.
By walking around and observing the remaining buildings and equipment, you can experience a history that textbooks alone cannot convey. Why not add a touch of intellectual time to your trip to Kumamoto Prefecture North?
