Leuchtfeuer Tokio, Maritime lighthouse in Tokyo Bay, Japan

The Leuchtfeuer Tokio rises 32 meters above the water, featuring a tower combined with a bowl-shaped structure at the entrance of Tokyo Bay.

The lighthouse operated from 1969 to 2010, replacing a lightship that guided vessels from the Izu Islands through Tokyo Bay since 1947.

The structure received the name Danjo no shimboru due to its architectural design representing the combination of male and female forms.

Located at coordinates 35°34′0″N and 139°49′42″E, the lighthouse projected light visible up to 8 nautical miles with 150 Candela brightness.

The original light equipment from this maritime structure now resides in the Museum of Maritime Science, preserving its technological legacy.
