Yoroizaki
"This cape is located on the eastern tip of the Shima Peninsula in Kuzaki-cho, Toba City. ""Yoroi"" means armor, while ""saki"" (""zaki"" when combined with another word) means ""cape,"" and this area's name is derived from a legend that Yamatohime-no-mikoto, an imperial princess who chose a suitable place to enshrine the goddess Amaterasu-omikami, removed her armor here. The waters in the area have been known to be treacherous since ancient times, and the majestic scenery consisting of the Yoroizaki Lighthouse standing on its tip, the surrounding reef, and the area's raging waves is counted as one of the Ten Views of Toba, 10 locations that are considered to have particularly beautiful views."
