This location is the site of the battle of Kanagawa, the largest field battle to have ever taken place in the Kanto region. The fierce battle took place on June 18 and 19, 1582 along the Kannagawa River on the border between Musashi (Tokyo and Kanagawa) and Ueno (Gunma) between Takikawa Kazumasu, lord of Ueno Umabashi Castle, and forces led by Hojo Ujikuni, lord of Musashi Hachigata Castle, and Hojo Ujinao, lord of Odawara Castle. The battle was also known as the “Battle of Kanakubohara" due to being fought in and around Kanakubo and Bisado areas of Kamisato-town.

Here you can see the only castanet-playing haniwa (clay figurine) and dancing female haniwa (clay figurine) ever found in Japan! In addition to the many earthenware and stone tools on display, you'll get an introduction to the life of Kiku Nishizaki, the first Japanese female seaplane pilot and great historical figure of Kamisato, who was the model for the heroine of an NHK TV series.

This riverside course has a mix of flat and undulating greens and is blessed with a rich natural scenery, with a view of the three mountains of Jōmō and Mt. Asama, and a carpet of red spider lilies in bloom during peak season. The specialty of the course is No. 17, a 595-yd (regular), par 6, extra-long course.

This field of spider lilies was planted on the banks of the Karasu River by local volunteers. The carpet of red flowers blooms along the Karasu River in autumn, with Mt. Haruna and the clear blue sky providing the backdrop for a spectacular view.
