Wave-cut rock formations like this one in Chikura-machi can be found all along Chiba’s southern coast. Chiba Prefecture is located on the Boso Peninsula, which is situated between Tokyo Bay and the Pacific Ocean. Southern Chiba’s rocky shores and the surrounding seas make it a great place to catch dramatic sunrises, sunsets, or as in this case the rolling clouds of morning sea fog.

Thank you @kimukazuu and @love.love.chiba for this photo of Daifuku-ji Temple.
This temple, also known as Gake Kannon, is built along a cliff face on Mt. Funakata in Tateyama City. The name Gake Kannon combines the Japanese word for cliff (gake) and the Japanese name for the Buddhist Goddess of Mercy (Kannon). The temple’s history dates back to 717 when the Buddhist Priest Gyoki carved an eleven-faced Kannon into this cliff face. Today, a climb up to the temple rewards visitors with a panoramic view of Tateyama City and Tokyo Bay.
