Rikuchū Kurosaki Lighthouse, Navigation lighthouse in Fudai, Japan.
The white lighthouse stands atop coastal cliffs reaching heights of 150 meters, directing maritime traffic along the Pacific shores of northern Japan.
The lighthouse began operations on April 17, 1947, becoming an essential navigation aid for vessels traversing the challenging waters of the Sanriku Coast.
The structure earned recognition as a Romance Toudai in 2019 through the All Japan Lighthouse Cultural Value Creation Project for its architectural features.
Visitors can access observation points near the lighthouse to watch fishing boats, local birds, and the blue waters of Nedari beach.
The lighthouse serves as a research site for maritime studies, drawing experts interested in engineering, coastal development, and navigation systems.
