Nojima Park, Urban park in Kanazawa-ku, Japan.

The park occupies an island at the entrance of Hirakata Bay and contains a 57-meter-high Mount Nojima with an observatory offering views of Yokohama.

The park opened in April 1956 and includes the former summer residence of Japan's first Prime Minister Hirobumi Ito, built in 1898 along Tokyo Bay.

The location appears in Utagawa Hiroshige's painting 'Nojima no Sekisho,' which forms part of the Eight Views of Kanazawa series from the Edo period.

Visitors can access multiple facilities including a baseball field, barbecue areas, campsites, and an observatory tower that provides views of Mount Fuji and Boso Peninsula.

The park contains Yokohama's only natural beach and preserves the Nojima Shell Mound, an archaeological site that provides evidence of ancient settlements in the area.
