Some information may have been translated by Google Translate

This Geopark is a popular sightseeing spot in Kochi, which is rich in nature. It is located at the tip of the Muroto Peninsula, and the site here continues to swell up to this day. In 2011, it was listed as one of the World Geoparks. The total area of Muroto Geopark in Muroto City is 248.20km2. In each region, you can come into contact with and learn about the history, living culture, and food culture that have coexisted with magnificent nature to this day. For example, Cape Hane was located on the bottom of the sea in ancient times, but now you can find trace fossils left by shellfish crawling on the rocky ground that was uplifted by earthquakes. On the Nishiyama Terrace of the Kira River, you can enjoy the scenery of various agricultural development using the sea steps of the uplifted terrain. Among them, the highlights of Muroto Cape are more concentrated. Here, you can walk along the walking path while admiring the rocks rising from the sea floor or subtropical plants.

Kobo Daishi is full of land

The main purpose was to visit Sai Misakiji Temple, but when I looked at the sea side from the national highway on the coastline, I felt that it was a surprisingly steep coast with large rocks lined up. Also, when I looked over from the observatory of Cape Muroto Lighthouse, I was able to see the latest rough 々 waves, unlike looking down from the plane flying over the sky.

It's a geologically distinct place, and it's a UNESCO World Geopark.

The Muroto Peninsula is a geologically distinct place and is designated as UNESCO's World Geopark. I think it has more global characteristics than Japan's designation. Cape Muroto is a review other than that because there are independent items. There is a cape called Kaoka nose on National Highway 55 from Tokushima Airport to Cape Muroto, and there is a Meotoiwa in Kaoka. In addition, there are rocks where Tafoni looks beautiful. In addition, if you head toward Cape Muroto, you will find the Geopark Center. Going to Cape Muroto ...

Cape Muroto itself is not very touristy and is not woven, but it is interesting to look around. You can see the explanation of topographical geology at the Muroto UNESCO World Geopark Center. Cape Muroto is uplifted. Therefore, it is said that the Mikuriya cave, which Kukai practiced in this area, was once on the beach. And every time there is an earthquake, the harbor will rise and the harbor will be shallow, which seems to be difficult. Well ...
