Mt. Otonashi

Located just a ten-minute walk from Futamiura station, Mt. Otonashi is one of the best places to see cherry blossoms in Ise-Shima, making the walk a delightful experience. In spring, an amazing number of blossoming trees line the promenades. Both the viewpoint and the walkways paths offer pleasant views of Ise Bay. One can even see across the bay to neighboring Aichi Prefecture’s Atsumi and Chita Peninsulas. Mt. Otonashi also boasts over thirty species of evergreen tree. Japanese silver leaf (Farfugium japonicum) plants here produce clusters of yellow flowers in the fall.
