Kannonzaki Park, Scenic park in Yokosuka, Japan.
Kannonzaki Park is a scenic park at the northeastern tip of Miura Peninsula, spanning tens of hectares with coastal paths and walking trails alongside the Uraga Channel. The grounds include an art museum, nature museum, and recreation areas for visitors of all ages.
This location once served as a military fortress protecting Tokyo Bay and was transformed into a public park after World War II. The conversion took place in the 1970s, opening the grounds to the public.
The art museum and nature museum on the grounds show contemporary exhibitions and local ecology displays. You can learn about the wildlife and artistic works connected to this coastal area.
You can reach the park by bus from several train stations including Uraga, Maborikaigan, and Yokosuka. Entrance is free and the grounds are open year-round for visitors.
The grounds feature one of Japan's oldest Western-style lighthouses and remains of military fortifications from the fortress era. There is also a children's area with climbing equipment and forest exercise facilities.
