Basically, the altitude goes up as we go east. In particular, the area from Higashiyama Park to Heiwa Park is the edge of the Owari Hills, also known as the Higashiyama Hills, and is known as a hilly area. In addition, the area around Mt. Kakuo is more exciting than the surrounding area. If you take the Aichi Prefectural Road No. 60 Nagoya Nagakute Line (Hirokoji-dori / Higashiyama-dori) that crosses Chikusa Ward from east to west, you can clearly see these undulations.
