Kojozan Park, situated on a small 60.8-meter hill between Kasaoka city and the Tomioka reclaimed land, offers panoramic views of Kasaoka city and the expansive Kasaoka Bay reclamation. In spring, approximately 400 cherry trees bloom, transforming the hillside into a spectacle of light pink. Once the site of Kasaoka Castle until 1619, the park now features a playground and monkey enclosure. Visitors can drive up or take a short walk from Kasaoka Station, passing through Inari Shrine. It's a popular spot for cherry blossom viewing and enjoying the scenery.
