✨ Attractions

Dubiously referred to as the "Scenic Parking Lot," the parking lot itself is an observation spot. It's popular for its panoramic views of the Aso Five Peaks and the caldera without even leaving your car.

Reports suggest that visitors can enjoy the majestic mountain ranges during the day, and the sea of ​​clouds and night view at night and early in the morning.
