Located in the heart of Kirishima City, Kagoshima Prefecture, Shiroyama Park is a popular tourist destination that combines natural beauty with recreational activities. From the hilltop observation deck, visitors can enjoy expansive views of the Kirishima mountain range, Sakurajima, and on clear days, even Kinko Bay.
In spring, the park is adorned with blooming cherry blossoms, attracting both locals and tourists for hanami (flower viewing). The spacious lawns and playground areas make it an ideal spot for families with children to relax and play.
The park also features a mini-golf course, offering a leisurely activity for parents and children or friendly competitions among friends—fun for all ages.
A highlight is the go-kart track, boasting Japan's highest elevation difference of 34.2 meters and a total length of 1,350 meters. With options for single or double riders, it's an exciting experience for both kids and adults.
The park's iconic Ferris wheel provides a 360-degree panoramic view of Kirishima City, Kinko Bay, and the surrounding mountains, offering a refreshing perspective from above.
Whether you're on a family trip, a weekend outing, or a sightseeing tour, Shiroyama Park is a must-visit spot in Kirishima for quality time with children.
