Minamata (水俣市), Kumamoto
After we left the "
No.1" stone stairways in Japan, we were visited to
Minamata Eco Park on the way to
Izumi, Kagoshima. The city is best known as the former site of an
environmental disaster caused by
industrial pollution of the bay with
mercury. See "
Minamata disease" on Wikipedia.
