Asahiyama

454 meters above sea level.
From the observation deck at the summit, you can take in a panoramic view of Takehara.
To the north you can see Hiroshima Airport, and to the south the islands of the Seto Inland Sea spread out like a beautiful painting.
There are benches and gazebos at the summit, so it’s also recommended to enjoy a bento while taking in the view.
Along the way, there are 33 child Jizo statues.
Restrooms available.
