ContentsDo & See
A hexagonal observation tower stands right in center of the park located at the southern end of the Oshika Cobalt Line near the summit of Gobansho Mountain (188 meters above sea level). The tower offers a fantastic 360-degree panoramic view of the Oshika Peninsula, Kinkasan Island, Ajishima Island, Tashiro Island, and the great Pacific Ocean. The “Sendai-han Karafune Bansho” lookout constructed during the Edo period has also been restored. This lookout was originally constructed to watch out for attacks by foreign ships.
