Coal was once an essential energy source that supported Japan's industry.
Manda Pit is one of the sites where this coal was mined.
Now a quiet historical site, it offers insights into the technology and labor history of that time through its buildings and equipment. It is also a recommended place for those interested in the history of energy.
