This is a recommended route to guide you through the park's most beautiful spots. However, feel free to explore every corner of the park at your leisure.

Red Lines:

  • Begin by ascending the stone stairs located 📍HERE (just past the public restroom on your right).

  • Continue on the asphalt path until you reach 📍THIS point, where you'll need to turn left.

  • Proceed straight ahead until you reach 📍THIS location. To your right, you'll find another set of stone stairs to climb.

  • After ascending the stairs and arriving 📍HERE, simply cross this wide section of the park to reach the 📍next location on our itinerary.

After arriving at the observation deck, as an option, you can take a slight detour and visit two more observation decks (which are usually less crowded) located nearby.

One is located 📍HERE, and another one 📍HERE.

Black Lines: these lines will guide you to the location listed after the observation deck - 📍Mikami Shrine. To reach it, just head down a short distance through the park up to 📍THIS point and make a left turn. Then simply head straight until you reach the next location (after observation deck on the list). You'll pass by 📍one of the entrances to the Bamboo grove, which might be quite crowded. Not to worry – we'll revisit this spot later when it should be less crowded, so there's no need to spend too much time there.
