Cone Karst Region, Karst landscape in Motobu Peninsula, Japan
The Cone Karst Region displays numerous conical limestone formations stretching across the Motobu Peninsula, with steep slopes and deep valleys between the peaks.
The limestone structures in the Cone Karst Region formed over millions of years through erosion processes, shaping the current geological landscape of Okinawa.
Traditional agricultural practices of Okinawan communities have adapted to the specific terrain of the karst region, developing methods to cultivate the rocky soil.
Visitors can access the karst formations through designated hiking trails within the Okinawa Kaigan Quasi-National Park, with informational signs explaining geological features.
Each limestone cone in the region contains distinct erosion patterns and cave systems, creating an intricate network of underground water channels.
