In fact, Amanohashidate is a sandbar about 3.6 kilometers long, naturally formed by tidal deposits, with around 8,000 pine trees growing on it. This creates a natural beauty of white sands and green pines, and its unique and magnificent landscape amazes many travelers.

Because of this naturally formed wonder, Japan has also derived another legend here, likening Amanohashidate to a bridge used by ancient Japanese deities to travel between heaven and earth. But after it fell over, it formed this beautiful sandy corridor.
