Hello! This is Atami Bay Resort Korakuen!

I’d like to ask you a question. When you plan a trip, what do you choose for the purpose of your trip?

I think there are many different ways to choose a destination, such as hot springs, gourmet food, etc. (By the way, I definitely choose gourmet food. lol)
I think there are also those who choose a destination for its sightseeing spots.

If you are going to go to the trouble of traveling, you should not miss the sightseeing spots that you can say, “I went to this place! I think that the accessibility of Atami from the center of Tokyo is also good.

Atami is a resort area that is easily accessible from the city center and can be easily visited even on a Day-trip hot spring.

In this article, we would like to introduce such a sightseeing spot, the Atami Ropeway!

The Atami Ropeway is located next to Atami Bay Resort Korakuen, and connects the “foot station” and the “summit station” with a total length of about 273 meters.
(Incidentally, it is the shortest ropeway in Japan!)

A retro-style gondola takes you to the top of the mountain.
What do you think? It’s kind of cute, isn’t it?

It only takes about 3 minutes, so it’s not long at all. It’s so short that it’s not enough…? If you are thinking, “What if it’s not enough because it’s so short? Although the ride is short, the view of the Atami cityscape and the blue waters of the Sagaminada Sea will leave you with a feeling of complete satisfaction!

After a short 3-minute walk, you will arrive at the summit station. When you get off the gondola, you will find the “Uzumisora Terrace” and a great panorama from the observation deck. A spectacular view awaits you!

It is really beautiful, and even without the staff’s perspective, there is no question that a spectacular view awaits you.
(You can see not only the city of Atami, but also Hatsushima Island, the Izu Peninsula, and even the Boso Peninsula in the distance if the weather is nice!

What do you think of this view…!

This view cannot be conveyed only by pictures, I would like everyone to see it in person…!
You will feel a sense of exhilaration that will make you want to take a deep breath…!

The sea breeze is really nice too… _(:3)_

A photo shoot with this view in the background from the Uzumisora Terrace will surely be a memorable experience!

The summit is also home to the Uzumisora Café, which sells coffee and soft ice cream.

It is recommended to take a break while enjoying the view on the Uzumisora Deck facing the terrace.

A moment of relaxation with a lovely view… What a luxury. ….
A drink with a view is the perfect treat…
(We also have indoor seating for hot summer days, cold winter days, and bad weather!)

In addition, ema (votive votive votive tablet) votive tablets are available for sale at the “UMISORA CAFE” where visitors can write their wishes on them.

There are two types of ema, “Kaiun Shofuku” and “Ryoin Seicho”.

This ema (votive picture tablet) is also very cute.
There is an ema (votive picture tablet) station in the corner of the observation deck where you can tie your votive picture tablet!

UMISORA Terrace also has a photo spot with west coast style graphics on the wall.
You can take a photo as a memory of your trip while sitting on a retro-style chair!

There are many other attractions at the summit, including the Atami Museum of Treasures, Atami Castle and Trick Art Labyrinth Museum, which are only a few minutes walk from the summit station.
If you have time, it is recommended to enjoy them together!
Why don’t you take a peek at the places you are interested in?

After enjoying the Atami Ropeway, we recommend visiting OCEAN SPA Fuua at Atami Bay Resort Korakuen. This spa facility offers a variety of baths, including one of the largest open-air standing baths in Japan, bedrock baths, a candle-lighting area, and a relaxation area, where you can relax and relieve the fatigue of your trip!

The view of the Sagaminada Sea from the open-air baths, which are built to jut out into the sea, is particularly exceptional. During the daytime, you can enjoy a panoramic view of the blue sea and sky, and at dusk, you can enjoy a sense of freedom as if you were floating on the sky and sea while gazing at the orange-colored surface of the sea.

After enjoying the city of Atami from the sky, spend some time at Fuua and become one with the sea…. How about ending your day with such luxury ^^)

By the way, if you show your Atami Ropeway ticket at OCEAN SPA Fuua, you will receive a 330 yen discount on the entrance fee to OCEAN SPA Fuua, so you can enjoy the spa experience at a discount!
