Bird-Calling Gate

A natural tunnel formed by the erosive action of wind and waves

The entire Echizen Coast is designated as Echizen-Kaga Coast Quasi-National Park. Located 1.7 km north of Cape Echizen, the "Kochimon" natural tunnel was formed by the rough waves of the Sea of Japan. It is a natural tunnel hollowed out by the erosive forces of wind and waves.
