Yato Castle Ruins Park
Yato Castle Park is the remains of a castle from the Heian period, and was designated as a national historic site in 1993. It is currently undergoing maintenance and restoration, bringing the area back to its former appearance.
The sight of around 400 Somei-yoshino and double-flowered cherry trees blooming at different times across the mountain is overwhelming.
There is a promenade that circles the outer garden, and the panoramic view of Mt. Yatsugatake, Mt. Fuji, and Mt. Kaikoma-ga-take seen through the trees is magnificent.
The park is spacious, so you can enjoy cherry blossom viewing at your leisure.
