Megane-iwa, a huge rock in Sasebo

On the second day, we went to some sightseeing spots in the northern part of Sasebo city.

First we went to Megane-iwa (眼鏡岩). It is a very big glass rock in the suburbs of the city.

Taking on National Highways 35 and 204 and passing through central Sasebo, we arrived to the glasses rock. But we're a bit confused where the entrance way is.

We went down to the end, we met a cleaning lady. She said, "Do you want to see the rock?". We say hello. She also told us about the history of rock. This rock seems to be a hole made naturally by erosion of waves in long ago when this place was the sea.

The rock. I was surprised that it was bigger than I thought.
