[Suhama and Amanohashidate]

Suhama stretches itself forward on the sea and it can been seen as path to heavenly gods and the universe of Sien Xian.

Particularly, Amanohashidate at Wakasa Bay, with a sand bar thickly covered with pine trees, was chanted in many distinguished poems.

Prince Toshihito, founder of the Katsura Imperial Villa, once visited Wakasa and copied its landscape at the Villa.
