Our guide
Mount Komaki, in the city of Komaki, Aichi, is only 86 m high; its base measures nearly 600 m east to west and 400 m north to south, about 21 hectares in all. Oda Nobunaga once built the original Komakiyama Castle on its top, and it is now a historical park with castle remains — wells and stone walls — and older artefacts besides. Though known for its cherry trees, its northern part has many Machilus thunbergii trees, the only place in the area where they grow wild. A reproduction of Komakiyama Castle was built in 1967 and houses the Komaki City Historical Museum.
Komaki Station on the Meitetsu Komaki Line is about 1.4 km away in a straight line, and Tagata Shrine about 3.6 km. We have not checked the museum's hours or fees.

What this place is
Mount Komaki (小牧山, Komakiyama) is an 86 m-high (282 ft) mountain located in the city of Komaki, Aichi Prefecture, Japan. At one point, the mountain was topped with the original Komakiyama Castle, built by Oda Nobunaga. Its base stretches for nearly 600 m (1,969 ft) from east to west, and 400 m (1,312 ft) from north to south, covering an area of approximately 21 ha (52 acres). The mountain is now a historical park, containing various castle ruins, including water wells and stone walls, in addition to artifacts dating further back. Though known for the sakura trees, the northern part of the mountain is home to many Machilus thunbergii trees. This is the only spot in the surrounding area where these trees occur naturally. The reproduction of Komakiyama Castle was built in 1967 and houses the Komaki City Historical Museum.
