Mt. Takayasu

高安山

Yao, Osaka · Elevation 487 m

Takayasuyama is a 487 m peak on the southern Ikoma ridge straddling the boundary between Yao City in Osaka and Heguri Town in Nara. The Nihon Shoki records that the Yamato court built Takayasu Castle here in the 7th century to defend the capital after the Battle of Hakusukinoe, and remains identified with that ancient mountain fortress have been found on the slopes. A weather-radar dome stands on the summit and the Kintetsu Nishi-Shigi cable car reaches Takayasuyama Station near the top, making this a popular start for the ridgeline hike on to Shigisan and Chōgosonshi-ji Temple. The mountain lies within Kongō-Ikoma-Kisen Quasi-National Park.
