Hanayagura Observatory

The beautiful scenery of Mt. Yoshino starts from here. An observatory around which spreads a mountainous landscape surrounded in cherry blossoms

Hanayagura Observatory looks out onto a superb scene located in the Kamisenbon area on Mt. Yoshino. During the cherry blossom season in April, you can view the splendid panorama enswathed in sakura on the mountain. There is also a rest area so that it is a place where you can stop by while on a mountain stroll.
