Japan Morioka – Atagoyama Observatory 盛岡 – 愛宕山展望台
Atagoyama Observatory provides some of the best views of Morioka City with some great hiking tracks from the gardens at the base of the hill. This video shows that path taken if you want to walk from the gardens up to the Observatory through the forest.
Atagoyama Memorial Park was built to commemorate the 1993 marriage of Crown prince Naruhito. Located in the Ishiwada district with the winding Idegawa River, sites include the sheer cliffs along the river as well as silicified wood. There are also lots of seasonal flowers such as wisteria and lilies, as well as colored foliage in the fall. An observatory has a view overlooking the city, and lots of visitors come for the hiking course too. Its many other highlights include historic features such as Atago Shrine at the top of the park and the site of Numajiri Castle, as well as a monument to poets with ties to Morioka City such as Tachihara Michizo and Takeshima Shigetaro.
