Muro Iwa Cave

Pretty cool

My 4yr old son went in no problem, some a couple Japanese kids turn away (they said) because scared. First thing when you walk in there are a few bats. On the backside of the cave (other exit) there...

Izushi の Quarrying site

Original Text

It is the site of the Izu stone quarry known as a stone material that is easy to process and has excellent fire resistance. Inside the dark cave during the day, lights are turned on only during the day for visitors, but there are some slippery places, so be careful if you have bad eyesight. When I visited, countless crabs were coming and going on the road. The view of the sea beyond the cave was also beautiful.

It is the remains of a stone quarry used in the stone walls of Edo Castle.

The volcanic ash deposited on the seabed becomes tuff when the Izu Peninsula repeated eruptions as a submarine volcano. Eventually, the Izu Peninsula rose, and this tuff was called "Izuishi" and was also used for the construction of Edo Castle (stone wall) using a ship. It is said that Muroiwado was used as a quarry until around 1955, and it was maintained for tourists. You can see the stratum of the quarry, the traces of the quarry. The promenade is also maintained, but I think it's better to have a flashlight even if there is lighting ...

Quite powerful. I'm glad that it's free.

I've heard of a rock mining site for stone walls in Edo Castle. I heard that he was observing a flying US military aircraft in World War II. The inside of the cave is slippery and you walk quite a bit to the entrance of the cave, so I think your shoes should be firm. But I think the first person who entered will be surprised. The sea opens when you go through the pitch-black mine. Recommended.

Cave が No material

A cave that was active as a stone cut place until 1954. You can explore for free from 8:30 to 17:00. When you go to the beach, you will see a superb view.
