Shioyazaki Lighthouse, located in Iwaki, Fukushima Prefecture, Japan, is a picturesque coastal beacon perched on a rugged cliff overlooking the Pacific Ocean. Built in 1899 and standing at a height of 24.2 meters, the lighthouse has long served as a vital navigational aid for ships traversing the treacherous waters off the northeastern coast of Japan. The lighthouse, with its striking white tower, is not only a functional maritime structure but also a popular tourist attraction, offering breathtaking panoramic views of the coastline and ocean.
