Its shape resembles a bridge extending towards the sky, hence the name 'Amanohashidate.' Positioned where the Asu Sea and Miyazu Bay of the Sea of Japan meet, it offers not just pristine natural beauty but also an expansive view of the islands.
There's an observation deck on Mount Monju from where Amanohashidate can be viewed. The mountain features a sightseeing car and amusement facilities suitable for all ages. The view of Amanohashidate from here resembles a flying dragon heading to the sky, thus named the 'Flying Dragon View,' offering a dynamic view of Amanohashidate.
