Cape Soya Park (Cape Soya Peace Park)

A monument to the northernmost point of Japan stands at the very top of the country!

Cape Soya, with a view of Sakhalin only 43 km away, is the top of Japan! This iconic tourist spot in the northern area of Hokkaido is located at the tip of a cape where the wind blows through. The surrounding area has been developed as a park, and along the sea there is a Monument to the Northernmost Point of Japan. On the hill, after climbing a steep, narrow staircase, there are also a lighthouse, various monuments, an old navy watchtower and other historical buildings. At Guest House Almeria, an observation facility, you can have lunch while looking at the neighboring Russian province of Sakhalin.
