Japanese ビーチ



I was fortunate enough to visit a beach, 天橋立, in Kyoto last weekend. It is actually supposed to be one of the top 3 views in Japan - with good reason. The other top 2 views were the front and back of the women I saw there....what??

So as I was saying, this beach is in the northern part of Kyoto. The beach itself is clean and of course crowded around mid-afternoon.

There wasn't much to do there except eat and enjoy the view, so here are pictures. If you look at the picture upside down it is supposed to look like a dragon winding towards heaven. I purposely posted all of these pictures right-side-up so that you look rediculous in front of your computer.

This awesome, must-see, beach is about 2 hours drive from Kyoto city, and about 3-4 hours by train. It doesn't really matter how long it takes, you HAVE to go anyways. Oh, if you are driving then be prepared to pay about 80 dollars in tolls...

You have to go to the nearby mall, Mipple, too. Just because.
