01 ／ Historic site

The reputed site of an embankment named in the Kojiki and Nihon Shoki.The earthwork found is thought to date to the 13th century.

The remains of an embankment at Tsutsumine Shrine in Miyano-cho became an Osaka Prefecture Historic Site, Den Manda no Tsutsumi, in 1974. A 2012 excavation confirmed an embankment-like structure thought to have been built in the 13th century, and found no structure from ancient times.

02 ／ Cherry blossoms

About 200 Somei-Yoshino cherry treesline both banks of a 500 m channel.

A 500 m channel runs north to south through eastern Mitsushima. The city records the view of its roughly 200 Somei-Yoshino trees as one of the Osaka Green 100 Selections. On weekends when the blossoms peak, the Sunago Channel Cherry Row Preservation Society has run a flat-bottomed boat along it (cancelled in some rain).

Fugenji Kofun in Kofuku-cho is a round mound about 30 m across, thought to date from the early 6th century. The shield-bearer haniwa (tatemochibito) found in a 2000 excavation survives as part of the head and fragments of the shield; restored, it is estimated at about 1.3 m tall. In 2024 it became No. 1 among the city's designated cultural properties.
