Otana Tunnel, Former Funaki Railway
A red-brick tunnel on the abandoned line of the Funaki Railway, which carried coal from the Taisho era into the Showa era. Surrounded by dense trees, its moss-covered brick lining speaks of the many years that have passed. A quiet, mysterious historic site that feels like an entrance to another world.
