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 on both the east and west sides. It is a special natural landscape. It is called "Amanohashidate" because it looks like a bridge stretching diagonally towards the sky. On Mount Monju, there is an observation deck from which you can see Amanohashidate. The mountain has a Ferris wheel and recreational facilities suitable for all ages. From here, Amanohashidate looks like a dragon flying in the sky, so it is called "Flying Dragon View". From here, you can see the vivid scenery of Amanohashidate. (Cable car ticket is at your own expense: Amanohashidate Observation Deck Cable Car/Monorail Combined Ticket 850 yen) [Ine Village] was selected 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 landscape that you cannot experience in tourist spots. Even today, people coexist with the sea in front of them. The clear and beautiful sea, the deep green mountains, the rapidly 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 you can also feed the seagulls. (Boats depart every hour and 30 minutes. The boarding fee 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 tour is cancelled due to wind or waves, you can wander around freely.) Note: There are many eagles living around the Ine Funaya Ya, so please be careful when taking the sightseeing boat. If you see an eagle, stop feeding the seagulls immediately and put away any food you are holding to avoid being pecked by the eagle.

Just by living, people accumulate dirt and impurities at the end of each day. It would be nice if we could wash them off ourselves every day, but for busy modern people, it is not easy. Mount Koya, which spreads out in a mountain basin surrounded by peaks at an altitude of about 1,000m, is a sacred place of Shingon Esoteric Buddhism founded by Kobo Daishi Kukai 1,200 years ago. This plan involves climbing together to the top of Benten-dake, the watershed of Mount Koya, and performing a purification and purification prayer in front of the shrine. (Depending on the weather, etc., it may be performed at a different shrine.) A special human figure will be prepared. Usually, the Great Purification is performed at the end of June and the end of December, but for our purification and purification plan, a specialized prayer leader will be available all year round when visitors are in a good mood. We will offer our original incense amulet after praying for it. Why not spend a refreshing time with the goddess of water (Benzaiten)? This is an experiential workshop recommended for those who want to learn more about Mount Koya.
