Takatoriyama Park — Attraction in Yokosuka

There are some bolted routes, but lead climbing is not available due to access issues, and only top rope is allowed. The place is full of small paths and walls with Buddhist carvings, including a carved Buddha, and there is a nice observatory at the top. Climbing was busy but not too much. Many people were walking by and watching the climbers when I visited...
