[Toyama, Amaharashi Coast] Yoshitsune Rock, a scenic spot where the legend of Yoshitsune remains 🌊⛰️

Amaharashi Coast is known as a scenic spot overlooking the Tateyama mountain range across Toyama Bay. One particularly eye-catching feature is Yoshitsune Rock, a large rock standing on the shore. Legend has it that Minamoto no Yoshitsune waited out a sudden rain shower in the shade of this rock while fleeing to Oshu, hence the name "Amaharashi." This place, where sea, mountains, and legend intersect, is a perfect example of a "quintessential Toyama landscape." On clear days, the snow-capped Tateyama mountain range can be clearly seen beyond the blue sea, creating a breathtaking sight! In the early morning, you can witness the mystical moment when the train, rock, sea, and sunrise all come together. If you're planning on bringing a camera, sunrise is especially recommended. 📌 Useful Information Address: Ota Amaharashi, Takaoka City, Toyama Prefecture Access: Approximately a 5-minute walk from Amaharashi Station on the JR Himi Line Parking: Available (Free, Amaharashi Tourist Parking Lot available) Free to visit, no admission fee Amaharashi Coast, where legend and spectacular views coexist. Why not listen to the sound of the waves and reflect on the story of Yoshitsune? #AmaharashiCoast #YoshitsuneRock #ToyamaTourism #ScenicSpot #TateyamaRange #ToyamaBay #HokurikuDriving #CoupleTrip #SunriseSpot #YoshitsuneLegend #ZeroYenTravel2025Autumn
