It's a great spot for couples to go on a date and spend some romantic time together.
You can get a really clear view of Onomichi city from the cable car. Great way to enjoy the cityscape!
There are thousands of cherry blossom trees here, including Somei Yoshino and weeping cherry varieties. The scenery during cherry blossom season is just lovely.
As the cable car slowly rises, you get a full view of the city and the endless Seto Inland Sea. Even though I bought a round-trip ticket, I ended up walking down to really enjoy the laid-back pace of life.
You can drive straight up to the parking lot on the mountain, but there aren't many spaces available. It's a short walk to Senkoji, and you get a great view of Onomichi City. Definitely a spot you shouldn't miss.
