Traveling around Chita Peninsula: A place connected to Emperor Meiji, Kariyado Park

It is one of the parks in the center of Handa City, and is famous for its cherry blossoms in spring. It was developed as a park in 1913 to commemorate Emperor Meiji's stay as the superintendent of the joint army and navy maneuvers held in 1890. Therefore, many monuments have been erected on the high ground of the park. Not only are there playground equipment for children to play in the park, but animals are also kept in the park, so you can see the animals for free without having to go to the zoo. There are also two observation decks on the high ground, and if you go up to the top, you can see the whole city. There are many benches on the vast grounds, so it's a good idea to bring a lunch box and have a picnic!
