Yesterday I went back to Minoh Park with Anna to visit the Minoh Falls, Ryuan-ji & also the Minoh Park Insectarium. As a lot of local people were staring at the river at one point, I tried to get a glimps too! The locals pointed me to a japanese giant salamander and I learned a new word: Sanshōuo - the japanese word for this creature. The uo at the end is important (meaning fish) because if you just say sansho it will mean japanese pepper :) #japan #osaka #minoh #ryuanji #travel #photography
