Amanohashidate, located in Miyazu, Japan, is one of the country's three famous scenic views. This natural sandbar spans approximately 3.6 kilometers across Miyazu Bay, connecting the northern and southern sides. Known for its breathtaking beauty, Amanohashidate translates to "Bridge to Heaven," as the sandbar, covered with around 8,000 pine trees, appears to float in the sky when viewed from the surrounding mountains. Visitors can enjoy various activities such as walking or cycling along the path, taking a boat tour, or viewing the scenery from observation points like Kasamatsu Park and Amanohashidate View Land.
