Nemuro Peninsula
Casi Sites
Casi (Chashi) refers to fences or a fence line in the Ainu language. They were used for several purposes, including as fortresses, ritual sites and lookouts.
Twenty-four of the casi sites in Nemuro City are listed among the Nemuro Peninsula Casi Sites designated as a national Historic Site in Japan. The sites were also selected as one of the 100 Fine Castles of Japan (entry no. 1), which was designated by the Japan Castle Foundation in 2006 .

Notsukamafu No.1 and No. 2 Casi Site
Located on top of a cape that juts out into Notsukamappu Bay, this site offers a panoramic view of the Sea of Okhotsk. Notsukamappu is also known as the birthplace of diplomatic negotiations between Japan and Russia, as the Russian merchant Shabalin arrived in 1778 to request permission to land there for trade purposes.
