Haraoka Pier, Haraoka Beach, Minamiboso City, Chiba
Access: A 10-minute walk from JR Tomiura Station

You’ll find the Boso Peninsula’s most picturesque pier extending toward the sea from a quiet beach that’s located just beyond the typical Tokyo-area tourist trail. This part of Chiba is accessible by train on the JR Uchibo Line, and is known for offering seaside views of where Tokyo Bay opens up into the Pacific Ocean.

On clear days at Haraoka Pier, you can see Mt. Fuji in the distance across the sea, a scene that tends to get even more stunning around sunset when the colors of the evening sky outline the mountain’s silhouette on the horizon. This spot has provided the setting for numerous photographs, commercials and films, and although it may be a humble destination, it tends to keep a special place in the hearts of those who visit.

There’s a place in Japan named “Utopia” and it’s one of my favorite hidden gems outside Tokyo. Ubara Utopia, or Ubara Risokyo in Japanese, got its name in the early 1900s when it was branded as an area for vacation homes. Today, visitors can trek the short Ubara Utopia hiking trail, and enjoy these stunning ocean views. The walking course starts from JR Ubara Station, making it an accessible day-trip destination. Would you take the trip from Tokyo to Utopia?

Here at Studio Waraya, Ryuichi-san keeps his collection of traditional textiles and antiques from all over Japan. Ten years ago, he renovated this 180-year-old kominka house, converting it to his studio. On our visit, he was kind enough to show us some of the works he has on display here, including articles of clothing from Chiba, Hokkaido, and Okinawa. If you’re interested in helping support his business, check out his account: @waraya.jp where you’ll find a link to his online store.
