Some 650 years ago, a famous temple of the Rinzai school of Nanzenji, founded by Emperor Go-Daigo's Imperial Court. Eleven-sided Kannon is the main god. There is a large cycads, which are said to be 700 or 800 years old in the precincts. On New Year's Eve, the Night Removal Bell is open. Amazake is also served.

It is a small company on the approach to the Shinmei Shrine, and it has been said from a long time among local divers that it will "grant one woman's wish." at the Shinmei Shrine Awards, a talisman dyed with stars and latticework, which is an amulet of a diver, was awarded. Amulet 900 yen, strap amulet 1100 yen and memorial amulet 1100 yen.

The black pine in the vestibule of the Ama Cultural Museum has a trunk circumference of 3m. The sap is thriving, and its tree shape looks like a dragon ascending to the heavens, so it is named Shōryū no Pine (の の).

A legendary place where a whale-ridden Kannon-sama appeared; a promenade was completed in 1996, where a full circle of whale-wasaki can be made; and the Sosashi Tenno Whale Festival is held on July 14 every year.

Amorasaki, which derives from the myth that Waimeimei, who was walking in search of the place where Amaterasu Omikami was located, took off his armor here. Since the offshore area was counted as one of the three major sparse places in Ise Bay, this Armor-zaki Lighthouse was installed early. I can't enter the lighthouse, but the view from the vicinity is superb, and the waves hit the reef violently is spectacular.

On Pearl Road, which overlooks the ocean in the eastern direction, you can see the beautiful morning sun rising from the horizontal line. The scenery of the sea and the coast, which is dyed in vermilion, is a moving thing. It is an amazing view that you want to see even when you get up early.

An observation deck at the summit of Mount Hakoda at an altitude of 162m, halfway up Pearl Road. The scenery of the sea from here is majestic, and you can see from the Chita Peninsula to Guru and Oozaki, and if there are conditions, you can also see Mount Fuji. A stone monument by Sachiko Yamaguchi and a song monument by his brother singers from the local area, Ichiro Toba and Yutaka Yamakawa, are also standing. There is also a seafood cafe and a shop, "Shokukuni Zao". This is the spot you want to stop for a break on the way to drive.

Nosiawabi is made to be dedicated at Ise Shrine. About 2,000 years ago, when Waimeimei was looking for an offering to be dedicated to Amaterasu, he was moved by the deliciousness of the abalone in Kunisaki, and there is a word that he decided it as a gift. The work by the hands of local old men in white costumes wigs out live abalone and hangs them in a cypress-built-up dry. Cut it to about 27cm and pass it through the straw. The dedication to the Ise Shrine is held three times a year: the monthly festival in June and December and the shinto festival in October.

Located at the easternmost tip of the Shima Peninsula, there is an octagonal chalk lighthouse that rises with a quiet place with little human traffic, and you can view the majestic ocean in front of you.

A small, pretty chalk lighthouse adjacent to the Hotel Ijika-zhuang, which is nice to look closer, but also the view that you see on the way to the stone mirror on Pearl Road.
