[19:00] Shinsaibashi / Dotonbori area (about 1 hour, free time) Amanohashidate is one of the three most scenic spots in Japan, along with Matsushima in Mutsu and Miyajima in Aki. It is a sandbar about 3.6 kilometers long, formed by the deposition of the coast. About 8,000 pine trees of various sizes are planted, and white sand beaches stretch out on both the east and west sides. It is a special natural landscape. It is called "Amanohashidate" because it has a shape like a bridge stretching diagonally towards the sky. There is an observation deck on Mount Monju from which Amanohashidate can be seen. The mountain has a Ferris wheel and recreational facilities suitable for all ages. The view of Amanohashidate from here is called "Flying Dragon View" because it looks like a dragon flying in the sky. From here you can enjoy the vivid scenery of Amanohashidate. (Cable car ticket is at your own expense: Amanohashidate Observatory Cable Car and Monorail Combined Ticket 850 yen) Ine Village was chosen by the Japanese as one of the "18 Most Beautiful Villages in Japan". With its unique Japanese floating boathouse architecture, you can experience the original ecological scenery that cannot be experienced in tourist spots. Even today, people coexist with the sea in front of them. The clear and beautiful sea, the deep green mountains, the ever-changing colors of the sky, and the colors of the boathouses that represent Japan. These are the pure colors of nature that can only be experienced in Ine Town. The fishing village along the coast is away from the hustle and bustle and is full of simple innocence. You can experience a 25-minute cruise around Ine Bay at your own expense and even feed the seagulls. (Boats depart every hour, every 30 minutes. The fare is 1,200 yen for adults and 600 yen for children, at your own expense. A bag of food for the seagulls costs 100 yen. If the boat is cancelled due to wind or waves, you can wander around freely.) Note: There are many eagles living around Ine Funaya, so please be careful when boarding the sightseeing boat.
