Amanohashidate, one of Japan's Three Scenic Views, is a 3.6km sandbar covered with about 8,000 pine trees, resembling a bridge to heaven. At Kasamatsu Park, viewing it upside down from between your legs reveals the spectacle of a dragon ascending to the sky
This Zen temple is one of Japan's Three Great Monju Temples, dedicated to Monju Bosatsu, the bodhisattva of wisdom. It houses several Important Cultural Properties and features about 5,000 pine trees, with its "Wisdom Rice Cakes" being a renowned local specialty
This rare rotating bridge connects Amanohashidate to the mainland, swinging open 90 degrees for passing sightseeing boats. On Sundays, it rotates hourly even without boats, creating a photogenic spectacle popular among visitors
Located on the eastern side of the Amanohashidate sandbar, this white-sand beach surrounded by green pines draws many summer visitors. Though facilities are simple, swimming at this scenic beach offers a unique and memorable experience
About 230 unique wooden boathouses stretch 5km along Ine Bay, with first floors connected to the sea for storing boats and second floors as living spaces. This fishing village, designated as an Important Preservation District, showcases Japan's original landscape
