It is a landmark of Nagasaki city and a popular photogenic spot bustling with people coming to view the night view.
The bowl-shaped terrain surrounded by mountains and centered around Nagasaki Port, also known as the Port of the Cranes, creates a unique three-dimensional night view known as the "10 million dollar night view." Its beauty was recognized and it was selected as one of the "New Three Great Night Views in the World" along with Monaco and Shanghai at the "World Night View Summit in Nagasaki" in 2021. In addition, Nagasaki City, including Mount Inasa, was re-certified as one of the "New Three Great Night Views in Japan" at the "Night View Summit 2022 in Sapporo."
