Seibu Park, spreading across the western slopes of Mt. Bizan near central Tokushima City, is a vast integrated park known as one of Tokushima Prefecture's premier cherry blossom spots. In spring, about 500 Somei-Yoshino trees bloom simultaneously, dyeing the mountainside pink—a spectacular sight selected among "Japan's Top 100 Cherry Blossom Spots." During flower viewing season, it buzzes with families and groups, allowing you to fully savor Japanese spring emotions. The park also features substantial playground equipment and observatory spaces, popular as a panoramic rest spot overlooking Tokushima City and the Yoshino River. With beautiful autumn foliage to enjoy, it's a relaxing urban oasis for citizens and travelers to feel seasonal nature right next to the city.

Mt. Bizan

Mt. Bizan, towering in the center of Tokushima City, is a symbol of the city and was even composed in the Man'yoshu poetry. It was named because it appears shaped like an "eyebrow" (bi) from any direction. You can reach the summit in about 6 minutes by ropeway while enjoying an aerial walk, and from the observatory, a magnificent panorama stretches across Tokushima City, Awaji Island on clear days, and as far as Wakayama. The night view is especially praised as one of Shikoku's best, with the twinkling city lights appearing very romantic. The summit park features a kaleidoscope-like monument...

Akui River

The "Akui River" flowing through Tokushima City is a beautiful stream with a clear flow where, as its name suggests, many sweetfish (ayu) once lived. Flowing gently at the foot of Mt. Bizan, it serves as a relaxation spot for residents to enjoy strolling or running.
