Spots to take spectacular view's photos
| Chichibugahama | Chichibugahama is a beautiful, 1km-long stretch of beach located in Mitoyo City. Perhaps you have heard of the famous Salar de Uyuni salt flats in Bolivia; this world-famous photo spot is known for its seamless reflection of the sky after rainwater collects in the low-lying flat, creating a natural mirror for many kilometers. Chichibugahama also happens to be the home of a similar "sky mirror" phenomenon. Called the "Heavenly Mirror of the Seto Inland Sea", the low tide on windless days creates the perfect place to take a once-in-a-lifetime photo. |

The scenery from the summit is breathtakingly beautiful and has been selected as one of the "Places I Want to Visit Before I Die! World's Greatest Views; Japan Vsion" in the New York Times (USA). During the cherry blossom season in spring, visitors from all over the world come to enjoy the spectacular view of the cherry blossoms and the Seto Inland Sea in harmony.
