The observation deck of the Chiba City Folk Museum provides visitors with a 360-degree view of Chiba City and the surrounding Inohana Park, the former site of Inohana Castle. The building that houses the museum also goes by the nickname Chiba Castle, as it was built to resemble a traditional Japanese castle. The statue outside depicts Tsunetane Chiba, the head of the Chiba Clan who ruled over this area over 800 years ago and presided over a period of increasing influence for the clan. Learn about this and other local history inside the museum, then stop for a quick snack or tea at the Inohana-tei tea house located within the park grounds.
Inohana Park is just an eight-minute walk from Kencho-mae Station on the Chiba Urban Monorail, or a fifteen-minute walk from JR Hon-Chiba Station.
