Panoramic View of the Japan Sea Coastline from the Observation Wheel
About this spot
A park perched on a high bluff overlooking the Japan Sea, where the signature observation wheel offers views stretching from the Teradomari coastline all the way to Sado Island on clear days. The lawn plaza and athletic areas are well-maintained, offering a luxurious spot to enjoy spectacular coastal scenery while moving around with family. Viewing the sea from this high vantage point in the summer's clear air—where the fireworks will later ascend—makes the evening display more emotionally resonant.
