Review
-
- Attractive views
- Worth visiting though in Western parlance it would be more helpful to refer to it as an Observation Point
-
- Came to see Lake Towada from the observatory
- Came by van in a group of 7 persons. The observatory has a observation deck that gives a higher and better view of the lake.
-
- Beautiful view
- We made a brief stopover at Hakka Pass Observatory to take a look at the autumn foliage. Go to the second floor of the Observatory to have a good view of the lake and the mountains.
