Kitayamazaki
Gigantic and oddly shaped rocks jut out from cliffs 200 meters high for a stretch of about eight kilometers at Kitayamazaki, one of the world’s best examples of coastal scenic beauty. Since the dynamic series of rocks is reminiscent of a mountain range, this scenic landscape has been called “the Ocean Alps.” Stairs take visitors 736 steps down to the water’s edge, along them to experience the crashing waves at close range.
