The highland areas around Suiha Mine are known for their picturesque scenery. The 360° panoramic views stretching from the Seto Inland Sea to the Shikoku Mountains welcome you with flower carpets of rapeseed blossoms in spring and cosmos during summer and early autumn. Accordingly, the area attracts many tourists during the rapeseed flower festival in mid-April and cosmos festival in mid-August. There is an observatory offering great views of the highland flowers and Ishizuchi Mountains, along with the Washington cherry blossom garden and a children’s playground. Suiha Kogen is the perfect place for a family day out.
