Tajima Mihonoura, Natural monument and coastal site in Mikata district, Japan.
The rugged coastline of Tajima Mihonoura features rock formations, tunnels, and granite walls extending along the Sea of Japan shoreline.
The geological formations at Tajima Mihonoura document the creation of the Sea of Japan through volcanic activity and marine sediment deposits.
The Mihashira Shrine Festival, held on October 9, includes traditional performances with Mikoshi portable shrines and Kirinjishi lion dances.
Visitors can explore the coastal formations through excursion boats or water taxis, departing from the local fishing port throughout the day.
The Shishi-no-kuchi Rock formation displays oxidized sections between lava layers, creating a natural void structure resembling a lion's mouth.
