Yayamadake Summit Park
"A park on the 869-meter summit of Mt. Yayama. Known as the ""Little Fuji of Higo,"" the view from this lovely mountain takes in the peaks of Shimabara, Aso, and Gokanosho. As there is little to obstruct the view, the night view of Yatsushiro and Kumamoto is another highlight. On clear nights, you can enjoy stargazing while lying on the lawn. The park has slides, swings, and a playscape. Toilets are available. This park with a beautiful promenade is crowded with families on weekends."
