Sakai Daiba Ato (the old Sakai Battery) is generally known as "Sakai Daiba Koen" in Sakaiminato, Tottori.
In 1863, this battery was built and now this area is opened as the park.
Battery is almost completely kept as the original shape and listed as the "Historical site" by Japanese government.

Sakai Daiba Koen (Sakai Daiba Park) is loved by people because of Sakura spot.
About 350 Sakura trees are planted.
Also, there is a Sakaiminato Todai (Sakaiminato Lighthouse).
If you are lucky, you can enter and can enjoy the lovely view from there.
