五月平展望台

The view is very good and wonderful. Overlooking the Osaka plains. Comfortable without bicycle entry restrictions. The road is wide, and you can ride up to here. A place that makes me happy to come. If you ride a bicycle, climbing the hill is difficult but worth it. It is on the toll road, but bicycles can be run free of charge.

The day I went there, it was hazy and I couldn't see the buildings in Umeda, but it was still a good view. Large facilities such as Melod Suita, Osaka International Airport, and Abeno Harukas can be seen, and if you look to the right (west), you can see Takarazuka and the mountains of Rokko. There is no extra trees in front of the capital-glazed plaza, which is a little down from the observatory, and the view is open. Let's make the night view so beautiful. I wouldn't be able to come at night without a car, but I would love to come to see the night view when my lover is ready. Lol

After a long time, I heard a voice in the night view. This observatory is located on the Satsukiyama Driveway in Ikeda City, Osaka (300 yen for a fee). There are no street lights and it is pitch black, and you will be overwhelmed by the amount of light in the city. If you like night views, it's worth a look! By the way, there is a charge for the road, but the parking lot is free. We also have a restroom. I walk to the observatory from the parking lot, but as mentioned above, there are no street lights. Growing up in the countryside, starlight is enough, but my companion was walking with the light of my cell phone. I love the silhouette of the trees that look dark, so I think it's good for me to have no light source, but it's not paved, and my feet are too dark to be dangerous, so I had a flashlight. It may be better. A few minutes walk, you can see the silhouette of the observatory that floats in the light of the city. Somehow pretty at that point. While standing on your feet, when you go up to the observatory while paying attention to your feet, the sea of ​​light spreads all over! It's mainly a residential area, so it's not colorful, but it's simple and irresistible! When I was looking at it while putting up with what I wanted to say (because I am already a good adult), there were people going down the side road on the left side. .. When I followed where I was going, there was an observatory spot just below the observatory. Hmmm, would you personally recommend this? It's hard to put it on, but lol. Since the view is from the slope, you can enjoy the night view with full visibility without any obstruction to your feet. Then, when I took a few steps and looked at it, the silhouette of a person standing at the tip of the slope was in the sea of ​​light up to my feet. .. It was kind of fantastic and I unintentionally released the shutter. However, that power and atmosphere that cannot be conveyed in the image. After all, I realized again that this is also a famous place where you can only experience the excitement at the site. When it comes to night views, we recommend winter when the humidity is low, but the windswept mountains are extremely cold. .. And since you will be walking on unpaved mountain roads, please come in warm clothes and comfortable footwear!

The night view is very beautiful, and Google Maps often gives three routes: 1. It seems to be very close. The route through the cemetery is forbidden by cars, and the second round can barely pass through the small gate. 2. A western route around the mountain, cars are forbidden, and it is not recommended to take the second wheel without external headlights. 3 A road in the east is the correct route. It is very suitable for couples to go there. When I went there, I also met a herd of deer/laughs. Those who are interested can come and have a look.

It looked really different from the night view of Rokko! Rokko looks down, but I'm glad that the night view spreads out on a flat surface (like a panorama).

Is the parking lot unpaved and can stop about 7 to 8 cars? You can reach the observatory in 5 minutes on foot from there. The road is wide and easy to walk, so it seems okay to see the night view. There is a plaza on the way, and if you climb a little down from there and reach the observatory, the Osaka plain will spread out in front of you, but it is a wonderful panorama for this height, Osaka Airport in front, and beyond. You can see the skyscrapers such as the central part of Osaka and Abeno Harukas, and the sense of distance that is different from Rokko and Mt. Kabuto gives you a different impression. Next time I would like to go to a night when the air is clear!
