Kashinosaki Lighthouse in Kushimoto, Japan, is a historic maritime beacon that has been guiding ships since its completion in 1870. Located in Wakayama Prefecture, the lighthouse stands on the southernmost point of Honshu, Japan's main island. Designed by the British engineer Richard Henry Brunton, it exemplifies Western-style lighthouse construction introduced during the Meiji Era. The structure is a significant cultural asset, offering panoramic views of the Pacific Ocean and serving as a symbol of the region's rich maritime heritage.
