Stacked beautifully like a stairway leading toward the sky across the rugged slopes of the Shimabara Peninsula's western coast, the "Minamikushima Tanahata Observatory" is breathtaking. The contrast between these terraced fields of potatoes or crops rolling down toward the sea and the endless, majestic blue of Tachibana Bay expanding before your eyes is a magnificent造形 beauty where great nature and human vital activities harmonize flawlessly, leaving viewers wordless. Especially during dusk, the scenery where the ocean and terraced fields fuse together to be dyed in a golden-purple grand gradient is sacred in its beauty, deeply cleansing travelers' hearts. Gazing at this superb view while caressed by pleasant breezes offers the finest moment to recover inner peace.
