A breathtaking view that makes you feel the roundness of the earth! A relaxing trip to Cape Ashizuri

#AbsolutelyFreeTravel Cape Ashizuri, located in Tosashimizu City, Kochi Prefecture, is a spectacular spot located at the southernmost tip of Shikoku. 🌊 The 270-degree panoramic view of the Pacific Ocean is so vast that it truly makes you realize the earth is round! At the tip of the cape stands Cape Ashizuri Lighthouse, one of the largest in Japan, its chalky white form reflecting beautifully against the blue sky and sea. ✨ It's also a place where history and mystery intersect, with a bronze statue of John Manjiro, a patriot from the late Edo period; Kongofukuji Temple, associated with Kobo Daishi; and the legend of the Seven Wonders of Ashizuri. I visited just at dusk. The tranquil moment, with only the sun setting over the horizon and the sound of the waves lapping, was truly soothing. 🌇 Enjoy a romantic getaway with your partner or simply enjoy nature on your own. It's perfect for any travel style. Access is about a 2.5-hour drive from Kochi city. 🚗 By public transportation, it's about a 90-minute bus ride from Nakamura Station. There are plenty of accommodation options, so we recommend staying overnight and taking your time exploring. A journey enveloped in stunning views, history, and tranquility. Be sure to add Cape Ashizuri to your next travel destination! Cape Ashizuri #StunningLighthouse #JohnManjiro #KongofukujiTemple #DomesticTravel #CouplesTrip #SoloTravel
