Misen Summit/Observation Deck
From the 3-story observatory at the summit (535 m above sea level), visitors can enjoy a 360-degree panoramic view of the Seto Inland Sea, islands, and the Ōtorii Gate. The scenery is so spectacular that it has received the highest rating of 3 stars in the Michelin Green Guide. The summit of Mt. Misen is […]
Honohoshi Coast
It is located on a cape at the southern tip of Amami Oshima Island. The round stones make a strange sound every time a wave comes in. There is an old legend that “whoever takes the stones away from the beach will bring bad luck,” so the round stones are prohibited from being taken out […]

Mosaic Big Ferris Wheel
This landmark of Harborland reaches a height of approximately 50 meters. If you stay for a ride, you can enjoy a 10-minute journey from up above. When the sun sets, about 120,000 LED lights colorfully light up the entire wheel.
Mt. Maya
Towering at a height of 700 meters, Kikuseidai, the observatory at the top of Mt. Maya offers one of the most magnificent night views in Japan. It is a mountain closer to the middle of Kobe, so you’ll be able to overlook the streets of Kobe and Osaka’s ocean horizons. When you get off at […]
Tree of Ken and Mary
Standing straight and tall towards the sky is this poplar tree. It measures 31 meters tall, and because there are no other tall trees it clearly stands out from a long distance. The tree became famous when it was introduced as part of a 1972 commercial for Nissan’s Skyline sports car. In the ad was […]
Kobe Port Tower
This crimson tower, looming at a height of 108 meters, is another landmark of Kobe. From the top of the observatory, you can see everything from the Rokko mountains to the ocean. At dusk, 7000 LED lights illuminate the tower. Every season, the light patterns also change.
Ogi-machi Castle Ruin Observation Area
This observatory was built on the site of the castle of Ujikatsu Yamashita, a vassal of the Uchigashima Tameji clan who ruled this area in the 15th century. The front of the observatory is a precipitous cliff.
Seven Stars Tree
On the northern side of Highway 237 stands a single Japanese oak tree in the middle of the rolling hills. The tree suddenly earned fame in 1976 as the world’s 4th largest tobacco manufacturer, JT, used the tree as the package image of their Seven Stars cigarette brand. That’s pretty much all there is to […]
Flower Land Kamifurano
It’s the largest sightseeing farm in Furano with a site area of 150,000 ㎡; dozens of seasonal flowers bloom in profusion as if they were filling the top of a small hill. In addition to the flower garden, a tractor bus that leisurely takes visitors on a 10 min ride through the garden is very […]
ニライ橋・カナイ橋
県道86号線から国道331号線へ下っていく途中にある、全長約660mの絶景スポット。 高低差約80mの断崖の上下を、連続する2つの橋が、大きくカーブを描きながら結んでおり、通るとまるで空中をドライブしているかのような感覚になる。 ちなみに上(山側)がニライ橋で、下(海側)がカナイ橋 ※ニライカナイとは、現地の言葉で「海の向こうにある理想郷」という意味だ。 ニライ橋・カナイ橋をドライブする場合は、海を見下ろす絶景を眺めることが出来る、山側から海側へと下るルートを採るべきだ。 ※海側から山側へと上るルートはあまり眺めが良くない。 なお、ニライ橋・カナイ橋のドライブには、橋の上は駐車禁止で、かつ急なカーブが多い道であるため、運転者はじっくり絶景を見ることが出来ないという“致命的な”欠点がある。 車を運転する君は、トンネル(ニライ橋・カナイ橋の頂上付近)にある展望所に行け。 この展望所は、海からは多少遠いが、標高が150mもあるので、ニライ橋・カナイ橋の全景や太平洋を見渡すなどの素晴らしいパノラマビューを楽しむことが出来る。
Nusamai Bridge
Nusamai Bridge is a large and magnificent 124-meter-long bridge that spans the mouth of the Kushiro River. Its location in the city center makes access to it easy. From the bridge, you can enjoy a picturesque view of the setting sun melting into the sea and the Kushiro River and Kushiro Port turning a beautiful […]
Kobe City Hall
There is an observatory on the 24th floor of the 1st building. The city hall is in the middle of town, so it’s fairly easy to get there. It’s also open all-year round until 10pm every night. And it’s free! You can enjoy both the ocean and mountain views in the comfort of inside a […]
Tenshukaku Observatory
This is not a lookout located inside the castle. Instead, it is an observation deck next to a local restaurant that has the atmosphere of a mountain hut. It is a little higher than the Ogimachi Castle Ruins Observation Deck, so the view is better. Also, there is a shuttle bus stop here.

Statue of Liberty
Copying the shape and size of the statue of liberty in Paris, France, the replica in Odaiba is made out of bronze. It sits facing the waterfront at Aqua City Odaiba. The 11 meter tall, 9 ton statue is about one third the size of the Statue of Liberty in New York. For whatever reason […]
Manenzaki Observation Deck
The observatory is located on high ground along Prefectural Road 626. The view from the observatory is very good. The view of coral reefs, islands, Rias coast, beautiful gradation of ocean colors, and deep greenery of mountains from here is wonderful. There are two viewing spots, one from which you can see the Oshima Strait […]

Ayamaru Misaki
The cape juts out into the Pacific Ocean. The grounds of the observatory, which is located on a hill, are grassy and nice. Since there is nothing around the observatory, the view from it is spectacular. The contrast of the blue ocean, white sandy beach, jungle green with rutus and sandalwood, and blue sky is […]
