About Sakura Mountain, Narita City
A great spot to watch airplanes take off and land up close.
Details
Sakura Hill in Narita City is a park located on a hill near the northern runway of Narita International Airport, where you can see airplanes taking off and landing up close. Known as the "Hill for Watching Airplanes," it is an excellent spot that is not only frequently chosen as a filming location for TV dramas but also a favorite site for many photographers and tourists.
You can witness the moment when the airplane retracts its wheels after takeoff, the wings leaving behind white trails of smoke, and the landing moments that feel within reach. Here, you can see airplane takeoffs and landings that are usually not visible. True to its name, the park is filled with cherry blossoms, allowing for stunning photography of both airplanes and cherry blossoms in spring.
Additionally, at the tourist spot "Sky Station Sakura Hall," you can purchase handmade bento boxes made with locally harvested fresh vegetables, as well as souvenirs from the airport or the Narita area. The lush green grass here makes it a pleasant place, perfect for enjoying a leisurely picnic.
