I attended this event because I wanted to experience licking sugar cane. It takes about 2 hours and is very fulfilling. You can learn and experience the process from harvesting the cane to turning it into brown sugar, and at the end you get to eat it. The raw sugarcane juice was delicious and impressive.

The brown sugar & island banana sweets making experience was a fun learning experience for my family! This plan was introduced on TV, and after actually participating in it, I could see why it was so popular. From harvesting sugarcane to making brown sugar and baked bananas, the program was enjoyable for both children and adults, especially the light work of harvesting sugarcane, which even women could enjoy. The sweetness of freshly harvested sugarcane was exceptional, and the freshly squeezed juice was delicious. Making brown sugar was a fun way to create original brown sugar, and the aroma and sound of baked bananas were enjoyable. And the tasting time was great. The baked bananas and ice cream made from island bananas, a native species of Miyako Island, were exquisite. The veteran guide was also very engaging, and we enjoyed learning about the crops of Miyako Island as we went. It was an organic experience, and we enjoyed the nature and food of Miyako Island!
