Kasamatsu Park

傘松公園

Kyoto · Kansai

A viewpoint on the Fuchu (north) side of Amanohashidate, generally considered the best view of the sandbar and birthplace of the "matanozoki" viewing tradition.

Why we picked it

Often overlooked in favor of the more accessible View Land on the opposite shore.
