2020 Tokyo Olympics Training Spot In Yokosuka

For some of the Olympic shooting events athletes, training is available among the greenery & flowers of Yokosuka's  くりはま花の国  "Kurihama Hana No Kuni" .... Kurihama Flower Park .... An area which was formerly property of the Imperial Japanese Navy and the converted into a park (like some other places in the City.)

From the website: 

"Kurihama Flower Park Shooting Range standards are approved by the National Rifle Association of Japan.  This indoor facility is a converted air raid shelter fitted with electronic targets and soundproofing to maintain stable conditions that will allow you to stay completely focused while training.  In addition, a training room, pool, and gym amenities are available within walking distance, to ensure multiple types of training necessary for competitive air rifle shooting (the training room and pool near the park are about 500 meters away from the shooting range, and Minami Gymnasium is about 800 meters away).  Meeting rooms are also available in Kurihama Flower Park Pool and at Minami Gymnasium.  Every year, competitions to decide Japan's air rifle and air pistol ranking are held in Kurihama Flower Park Shooting Range."
