Amanohashidate is a sandbar in the northern part of Kyoto Prefecture. Amanohashidate roughly translates as “bridge to heaven” because it looks like a path connecting the land and sky when viewed upside down (hence the tradition to view it through your legs).
The south side of the sandbar has Viewland – an amusement park with some viewing platforms. The north side has Kasamatsu Park which is a more nature-y park with more viewing platforms.
It really is a beautiful place and worth a visit if in Kyoto Prefecture. It’s in the town of Miyazu (which I accidentally said Amanohashidate for in the video), about 2 hours on the train north of Kyoto city.
Much love and happy travels
