Seaside Charm

Chōshi, on Chiba’s eastern coast, blends spiritual tradition with seaside charm. Enpuku-ji Temple (Iinuma Kannon), a key stop on the Bandō 33 pilgrimage, features a five-story pagoda and beautifully painted ceilings. Nearby, scenic beaches like Chōshi Marina and Kimigahama offer ocean views and access to the dramatic Byōbugaura cliffs.
