Mt. Hōka

烽火山

Nagasaki, Nagasaki · Elevation 426 m

Mt. Hōka is a 426 m peak in the northeastern hills of central Nagasaki City, set on a ridge connected to neighbouring Mt. Konpira. Its summit holds the well-preserved remains of a foreign-ship signal beacon, "Hōkayama no Kama-ato," built in 1638 (Kan'ei 15) by order of Matsudaira Nobutsuna after the Shimabara Rebellion and designated a Nagasaki Prefectural Historic Site in 1964. The circular earth platform and three fire-entry openings of the beacon tower are still visible. The peak combines sweeping views of Nagasaki Harbor with this rare Edo-period monument and is listed in the Nagasaki Mountain Guide.
