Great photo. The Sea Candle is a stunning reminder of the power of natural beauty and cultural pride, standing tall and unashamed of its location on an otherwise small and not overly significant island. Highly refreshing.

Boy, that's a great photograph. That is one beautiful candle.

Looks like an appropriation of Kobe Tower. Or maybe it is the other way round.

Enoshima is a windy island, so the stairs can be quite an experience. Enoshima has a lot of stairs and an outdoor eating area where the local Black Kites may swoop down and pinch snacks off the unwary. The island gets very busy, even out of season, but is well worth a visit. The EnoPass gives you a heap of assorted benefits, including free use of several escalators. Plan your trip to include rides on the Enoshima Electric Railway and the Shonan Monorail. If you like trains, Japan is your happy place.

Natural beauty? Are you joking? That's an ugly tower. Natural beauty = a waterfall or some other majestic sight in nature. Come on!!!
