Enyama Sunflower Park (next to Enyama Park)

Sunflowers are planted on the east side of the Prefectural Forestry Technology Center in a field of approximately 2 ha in the former Enyama Nursery area next to Enyama Forest Park. We receive inquiries from many people every year, and are widely popular not only in the town but also from outside the town. It is also known among photography enthusiasts as a scenic spot where you can take pictures of a field of sunflowers with Nanchang Mountain in the background.

Yanzan Dam

An earthen dam with a height of 23 meters that dammed the Iwasaki River, which was frequently causing floods and other water damage. The view of the town from the dam side is exceptional, and there is also a health road that goes around the dam. Nearby are the hot spring bathing facility ``Pastoral Baden'' and the indoor heated pool ``Nanchang Green Heights.''
