Shingū-machi, Fukuoka / Hisayama, Fukuoka / Fukuoka, Fukuoka · Elevation 367 m

Tachibanayama is a 367 m peak on the boundary of Higashi Ward in Fukuoka City and the neighbouring towns of Shingu and Hisayama, best known as the seat of the Sengoku-era Tachibana clan (whose head Tachibana Muneshige built Tachibana Castle here). Its slopes harbour a primeval forest of *Cinnamomum camphora* designated a Special Natural Monument, and together with adjacent Mikazukiyama the mountain forms the 'Tachibana–Mikazuki Friendship Forest.' Several trails meet on the open summit, which commands views of Hakata Bay, Nokonoshima and the Genkai Sea. The peak is included in the Kyūshū Hyakumeizan, the Fukuoka prefectural climbing guide and the Fukuoka Chōteizan list.
