Overview

Yokote Park is a peaceful park developed on the former site of Yokote Castle. Within the park, you'll find the Yokote Castle ruins and an observation tower modeled after the castle's keep, providing breathtaking 360-degree views of Yokote city and the distant mountains. The park also boasts various facilities, including a rose garden and a red earth plaza, serving as a relaxing space for locals. In spring, the park explodes with cherry blossoms, painting the landscape in shades of pink. Evening illuminations during this season create a magical atmosphere. Autumn brings a stunning display of autumn foliage, transforming the park into a canvas of reds and yellows. A special autumn foliage illumination event further enhances the beauty of the season. Yokote Park is a place where history and nature harmoniously coexist, offering a tranquil escape. Experience the ever-changing scenery throughout the four seasons – we encourage you to visit!
