Akashi, a small seaside city in Hyogo Prefecture, is famous for its beaches and night viewing of the Akashi Kaikyo suspension bridge and clear beautiful sunsets! Ships passing through the harbor add further beauty to the scene. Don't forget to wait until it gets dark to see the light-up of the suspension bridge reflecting in the ocean waters below.
