Takakanonuma Greenland was an amusement park located around 300km / 185 miles north of Tokyo. It opened in 1973, but was closed a few years later already because of a low number of visitors although some local myths speak of fatal accidents. In the 1980’s some efforts were made and the park re-opened for about ten years, but it had eventually to close again because other new and modern amusement parks in the region were more popular.
