The hike isn’t too tiring, but the view from the top is awesome. You can look straight out at the ocean, and the weather really makes a big difference.
It’s perfect for a half-day trip if you want a light hike without pushing yourself too hard. Great for walking, taking photos, and just relaxing.

Akebonoyama Agricultural Park
It is an agricultural park known for its flower garden with a windmill. The seasonal flowers welcome you in each season, starting with cherry blossoms and tulips in spring, then approximately 300 hydrangeas in summer.
The park is really spacious, perfect for bringing kids to play or for a picnic.

Yokote Masuda Manga Museum
This art museum, specialized in original manga drawing, was opened in 1995 in Masuda, the hometown of manga artist, Takao Yaguchi who swept the world with Tsurikichi Sanpei. The Museum's first mission is to preserve the original drawings which manga artists made such efforts to create. The collection holds more than 400,000 sheets drawn by more than 180 artists.
As an anime fan, I didn't want to leave once I was inside. The museum is free, except for some special exhibits that have a fee. Totally worth it.

Miyajidake Shrine
Miyajidake Shrine, located in Fukutsu City, between Fukuoka City and Kitakyushu, is the head shrine of all Miyajidake shrines in Japan. The shrine was founded approximately 1,700 years ago and enshrined Empress Jingu-kougou as its main deity.
This is a beautiful shrine—it's really big, with several smaller shrines inside and a huge sacred rope. The sunset is gorgeous here, making it a great spot for a relaxing walk.
