Maizurujo Park offers a splendid look-out over the area near Kofu JR Station. The highest point of the park is the Tenshudai, where the highest tower of Kofu Castle was once located. Not only can you see a great view of the cast ruins with its reconstructed Inari Yagura Tower and Yamanote Gomon gate, but you can see terrace vineyards on Mount Atago and the spire of one of Chozen-ji's pagodas. If the weather is clear you can also see Mount Fuji from here, and in spring the park is full of cherry blossoms.
