Torikusoiwa Rock

Japan, 916-0301 Nashigahira, Echizen-cho, Nyu-gun, Fukui Prefecture

A large cliff about 100m high located just south of Yoborimon Gate at the northern end of Echizen Town. The tip of the cliff, which rises almost vertically from the sea, is a habitat for seabirds, and it got its name from the fact that it turns white with their droppings. It is a symbolic sight of this land that has lived alongside the majestic Sea of Japan.
