GPS art of a snake, drawn at a Snake spot in Amami🐍✨
This GPS art course takes visitors to the area around Hara Habu-ya, a famous snake’s spot in Amami island, where you can draw a snake, the animal of the Chinese zodiac.
Hara Habu-ya in Amami City, Kagoshima Prefecture, is a store that has been producing processed habu viper products for three generations of parents and children. In addition to processing dried and powdered products, they also make a wide variety of leather goods and accessories using the bones. Also, the snake charmer’s performance “Hubu to Aima Show! is their specialty.
The underlying concept behind these various interesting activities is “to create opportunities for people to face and understand habu vipers. They do not kill any habu vipers for their products, and only use habu vipers that have been brought in for extermination. It is wonderful that they are sincere in their approach.
In 2025, Hara Habu-ya may become a popular spot. Please try it during your first visit to the shrine🐍✨
