Daikanbo is located in the northeast of the Uchinomaki Onsen area, where visitors can enjoy stunning 360-degree panoramic views of the Aso City region. From this viewpoint, you can see the famous Aso Five Peaks, said to resemble a reclining Buddha, as well as the picturesque Kuju Mountain Range. During autumn and winter (October to February), Daikanbo offers a unique experience where visitors might witness the "sea of clouds" phenomenon, with low-hanging clouds creating the illusion of peaks rising from a sea of clouds. This magnificent sight further enhances the charm of this location. In addition to the beautiful scenery, Daikanbo also features a souvenir shop and a restaurant, making it a convenient stop for refreshments and souvenir shopping.
