A Day at Katsurahama Beach
Dana VielmettiKatsurahama--much more than a beach. Enjoy stunning views of the Pacific, an aquarium, the Ryoma Sakamoto Museum, dog fighting, and more.
"La playa de Katsurahama en la prefectura de Kochi es un buen lugar para una excursión de medio día. La vista ofrece olas, sol y arena pero está prohibido nadar en esta playa debido a las fuertes corrientes.
Sin embargo, hay algunas vistas y lugares interesantes para explorar alrededor de la playa. Cerca de la playa se encuentra una famosa estatua del hijo favorito de Kochi, Sakamoto Ryoma.
Sakamoto fue uno de los arquitectos del Japón moderno. Jugó un papel decisivo en la negociación de una alianza entre los clanes Choshu y Satsuma que ayudó a poner fin al período feudal de Japón en 1868. También hay un pequeño acuario y un santuario cercano.
Standing on a hill near the beach, visitors can see the stoic façade of Sakamoto Ryoma. The nearby museum houses artifacts related to Ryoma’s life and story. Being a native of Kochi, the samurai hero is a local legend not to be missed. (Opened 9 am to 5 pm)
Facing Tosa Bay along Katsurahama Beach is the small Katsurahama Aquarium. Home to Japanese lates, a rare and supposedly legendary fish, the aquarium also offers sea lion and seal shows where guests can get up close and personal with the animal performers. (Opened 9 am to 5 pm)

Kochi Castle in Kochi Prefecture, Japan, was built following the Battle of Sekigahara in 1600. Construction of the castle took place from 1601 to 1611 and remained intact until a fire burned down much of the original fortress in 1727. The castle went through two major reconstruction periods; the first from 1729 to 1753 and the second from 1948 to 1959. While no battles of importance took place at Kochi Castle, it is noteworthy for its original structures. Kochi Castle is the only castle in Japan to retain the original tenshu and palace and have all the original buildings of the honmaru. Today it remains an Important Cultural Asset. In pop culture, the castle has been featured in the animated film Ocean Waves by Studio Ghibli. It was also portrayed in the film The Harimaya Bridge where several scenes took place in the courtyard. When visiting the castle today, guests are asked to remove their footwear and don slippers. The old tatami rooms are not accessible due to their age and wear but they are visible. Visitors can also view many Tosa artifacts and even climb stairs to the upper rooms of the tower where there is a wonderful view of the castle surroundings. Handicap access is severely limited due to the number of stairs and the lack of an elevator.
