Tateyama is located at the southern tip of the Boso Peninsula in southern Chiba Prefecture, facing the coast of Tokyo Bay. Tateyama has many tourist attractions worth visiting. Here are some recommendations: History and Culture - Tateyama Castle and Hakkenden Museum: Once the castle of the Satomi clan during the Warring States period, it is also the setting for the "Nanso Satomi Hakkenden" legend. The current Tateyama Castle keep has become the Hakkenden Museum, displaying various materials related to the original "Nanso Satomi Hakkenden." From the watchtower, you can overlook the city centered on Kagamiura Bay. On clear days, you can see Mount Fuji and the Miura Peninsula. - Tateyama City Museum Main Building: Located in Shiroyama Park, it features exhibitions on the history and folklore of the area, including the world of ink paintings by Japanese painter Hato Iwasaki, an honorary citizen of Tateyama. At certain times, you can also try on armor for free, as if traveling back to the Warring States period. - Nagisa Museum: Exhibits include original drawings and related merchandise of Tateyama's mascot, "Dr. Fish." There are also exhibits on the shipbuilding and fishing industries of the Boso Peninsula, helping visitors understand the local marine culture. Natural Landscapes - Hojo Coast: The longest coastline in Tateyama, boasting the title of "Most Beautiful Sunset City." The Tateyama Bay facing Hojo Coast is as calm as a mirror and is called "Kagamiura." On days with clear air, you can see Mount Fuji in the distance, and from May to July, you can also enjoy the "Diamond Fuji" spectacle. - Sunset Pier: The longest pier in Japan, stretching 500 meters to the bridge head, capable of accommodating large cruise ships. A cute blue statue stands in the middle of the pier. This is a romantic place for viewing and couples' strolls. When the sun sets, it reflects on the sea surface, making it a perfect photo spot. - Okinoshima Park: Okinoshima is an uninhabited island floating in Tateyama Bay, now connected to the land. The seawater here is extremely transparent, and you can observe about 30 species of coral in the northernmost waters of the world. It is an excellent snorkeling spot, and you can also stroll along the coast and enjoy the seascape. Diving Experiences - Chiba Tateyama Underwater Shrine: The world's only underwater shrine, with underwater scenery such as a shrine, a maze, and a space capsule, suitable for divers of different levels. Local marine conservation projects have also attracted many large marine creatures here. - Chiba Tateyama Shark Fort: Divers have a 99.9% chance of seeing Japanese wobbegongs here, as well as humphead wrasses, manta rays, and other species. The ratio of divers to sharks can reach 1:30, offering a thrilling experience of dancing with sharks.

🌲Nestled beside the bustling Tokyo metropolitan area lies a hidden gem - Tateyama. Located at the southern tip of the Boso Peninsula in Chiba Prefecture, this coastal city captivates countless visitors with its unique natural scenery, rich historical and cultural heritage, and leisurely pace of life. The beauty of Tateyama first reveals itself in its dreamlike coastal scenery. Hojo Beach is renowned for its crystal-clear waters and golden coastline. As the sun sets, the entire coastline is bathed in a golden hue, creating an incredibly romantic atmosphere. The Sunset Pier is another must-visit spot. Walking along the pier, with the sea breeze gently caressing your face, the palm trees and blue sky form a picturesque scene. The blue statue in the middle of the pier symbolizes a lovers' sanctuary, making it a romantic destination not to be missed by couples. 🌲Beyond its coastal beauty, Tateyama is home to numerous historical and cultural relics. The Tateyama Castle Ruins Park is a lush oasis, with cherry blossom trees, ginkgo trees, and various other trees scattered throughout. In spring, cherry blossoms bloom, and pink petals drift in the wind, creating a romantic floral rain. From the observation deck at the castle ruins, you can overlook the entire park's beauty and gaze at Tateyama's cityscape and the vast ocean. This striking contrast between history and modernity evokes a myriad of thoughts. 🌲For adventurous and exploratory visitors, Nojima Island offers a unique opportunity to get up close and personal with sharks. This small island is connected to the mainland, allowing easy access on foot. The island boasts a diverse array of marine life, providing a chance to encounter sharks and experience the unique charm of the southern islands. In addition, Tateyama offers many other attractions worth visiting, such as the Futtsu Cape Lighthouse. Standing like a loyal guardian by the sea, it watches over the vast ocean. Climbing the lighthouse opens up a panoramic view of the expansive sea. As night falls, the lighthouse emits a warm glow, guiding ships at sea. Beneath the lighthouse, listening to the sound of the waves and watching the flickering lights, time seems to stand still, leaving only inner peace and beauty. 🌲In Tateyama, you can also visit Suwa Shrine, Buwakan Kanko Jigyobu Group General Office, and Tenrikyo Tateyama Branch Church to experience Japan's unique religious culture. The Susaki Shrine is a mysterious underwater shrine hidden beneath the sea, accessible only to diving visitors. Standing before the shrine's torii gate 18 meters underwater, you can feel the mystery and majesty of nature, making it an unforgettable experience. 🌲🌲🌲In summary, Tateyama is a treasure trove of natural beauty, historical culture, and adventurous exploration. Whether you're a visitor seeking relaxation or an adventurer eager to explore the unknown, you'll find your own joy here. Come to Tateyama and embark on a timeless seaside journey!🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹

#11GoodDestinations2024 This time we took a one-day trip to Okinoshima Island in Chiba Prefecture near Tokyo. This Okinoshima Island is an outlying island with shrines⛩️, caves, beaches🏝️, etc. It is rich in natural resources, so many people come here on weekends for picnics, water activities, or shrine visits, etc. It is worth visiting. When the weather is good, the water surface is even more sparkling and very beautiful.

#Osaka Attractions First of all, the most striking thing about Okinoshima is its unique "glass sea" landscape. The sea water here is clear and transparent, as if it has turned into a huge mirror, perfectly reflecting the sky and natural scenery. Being in it is like being in a dream, which makes people marvel. In addition to the charming "glass sea", the other natural landscapes of this island are also a major selling point. The island is surrounded by the azure sea, soft and fine white sand beach, and lush tropical vegetation, which together create a breathtaking coastal picture. Okinoshima has a dreamlike "glass sea" scene and beautiful natural scenery, making it a favorite among tourists who love nature.

Niyunji Temple is an ancient temple located in Minamiboso, Chiba, with a history of more than 700 years. There are more than 20,000 hydrangeas planted in the temple, and they were almost in full bloom on June 18. The advantage is that there are really very few people, and the two free parking lots with a capacity of about twenty or thirty cars are not full. If you are driving by yourself, I would like to recommend the uninhabited island [Okino Island] in the Tateyama area, which is also on the Minamiboso Peninsula. The water is so clear that it is not like Chiba. The last picture is of Okino Island. Address: 2124 Kamo, Minamiboso City, Chiba Prefecture

Okinoshima is home to a variety of creatures, including crabs, starfish, and squids. The shallow waters were just the right depth for swimming and playing on the rocks. My son was too small to wear a snorkel, so I used a bucket-type lens, but I was still able to observe well enough with that. There are many beach barbecue restaurants and sushi restaurants in the neighborhood, so we enjoyed delicious fish dishes. I was impressed by how clear and beautiful the sea was. The sunset was also beautiful, and I want to come back again. This time, I stayed at a guesthouse because I was on a tight schedule, but the sound of the door opening and closing was so loud that I couldn't sleep well. #PR #ChibaTourism #Tateyama #Okinoshima #ChibaPrefecture
