A Must-Visit Location from the Morning Drama: Kohama Island
I finally visited the Yaeyama Islands, specifically Kohama Island, which I had always wanted to go to.
It takes about 30 minutes by regular ferry from the Euglena Ishigaki Port Remote Island Terminal.
The round trip costs 2,700 yen.
This island was the setting for the drama 'Churasan.'
It takes about 50 steps up the stairs to reach the observation deck of Mount Ufudaki. There, you will find a monument dedicated to 'Churasan.' The view of the blue sky and sea from there is absolutely stunning.
The Kohagura Residence, which was used as a filming location, is a private home, so you can only view it from the outside. The Sugar Road was used as the main character's school route.
The nostalgic scenery is highly recommended☺️
