Furusato Park (Wakamiko Castle Ruins)
Furusato Park was built on the site of Wakamiko Castle, said to be the birthplace of the Kai Genji (Takeda) clan. During the Sengoku period, it is said that the castle was used to fortify the defense of the Kyouhoku area, and megaliths remain that recall those times.
There are about 20 Somei-Yoshino cherry trees planted in Furusato Park (the site of Wakamiko Castle).
Because it is located on a hill, you can see Mt. Fuji on a clear day.
It's a truly Japanese spot where you can enjoy cherry blossoms and Mt. Fuji together while feeling the history of Japan.
