Toyomatsu Paper Airplane Tower

Observation Tower

3.0

This tower, the only one of its kind in the world, was created specifically for people to launch paper airplanes from it. Situated in the center of the park at the summit of 663-meter-high Mt. Yonami, the tower stands 26-meters-tall. There is an observation deck situated 15 meters up the tower, and from here visitors can take in a 360 degree, panoramic view encompassing distant Mt. Daisen, Mt. Dogo, and the Hiba Mountains. In 2013, the tower was designated a Lover's Sanctuary, and visitors can drop a “lovecopter” from the tower, which is said to grant one true love.

Review

開館を確認してどうぞ。

うわさを聞いて、行きたいと思っていました。看板は分かりにくいし、道は狭く、迷いました。やっと到着したものの、閉館中でした。景色はとても良かったので、次回は開館を確認して行こうと思っています。開館時間と地図などで下調べされることをお勧めします。
