[Yakushima] Crystal Cape

On our last day on Yakushima, we went to a secret spot that we were told about by the souvenir shop "Pukarido" 🏖🐠☀️ It's about a 5-minute drive from Pukarido 🚗 ³₃ As we walked along the narrow, unpaved gravel road, we discovered a small path that led to the sea 👀 When we went through that path!!! The cliffs make you feel like you're overseas, and the sparkling blue sea spreads out before you😍 This is a hidden spot in Yakushima that only a few people know about✌️ Actually, this is the site of Hayasaki Mine, a mine where tungsten was once mined, and it is said that it was called Crystal Cape because crystals were mixed in😌 The cliffs with their many layers of rock really make you feel like you're at a World Heritage Site😳✨ As an adventurer, I, of course, did some natural rock climbing all the way to the tip of the cape~ It's a recommended spot for adults to return to their childhood🌈 I was also able to get a good view of Tanegashima~ #Yakushima #Kagoshima #CrystalCape #Cliff #Cliff #RockClimbing #SeasideScenery #HistoricalSites #RemoteIslandTrip #Pukarido #TripToEnjoySpring #InstagramMakesYourPhotos #AmazingNature #TripToVisitRemoteIslands #SupportTourism #BreathtakingViews

Yakushima has nature that even people who think that Jomon Cedar is quite difficult and tough can experience. There are many places that are relatively easy to access, such as Shiratani Unsuikyo Gorge, which is said to be the model for the setting of Princess Mononoke, and the majestic Chihiro Falls. One of the charms of Yakushima is that you can do as you like according to your physical strength and length of stay. #Remote Island Trip #Amazing Views #Yakushima #Amazing Views

This photo was taken during a trek to Jomon Cedar, deep in Yakushima, a registered World Heritage Site. There isn't much elevation change to call it a trek, but since it's a long walk, we get ready before dawn and set off at sunrise. The rich and precious nature and various scenery along the way are thrilling. It's a very difficult journey, but it's worth the effort. #RemoteIslandTrip #AmazingView #Yakushima #AmazingView
