This location is very popular for a driving course that offers great views of the incredible rocky cliffs, beaches draw many visitors from other prefectures for swimming. The best place to appreciate it is Echizen Cape Observation Deck. This deck is located on the top of the hill which faces Echizen Beach. This is also a popular destination for the beautiful views of the many daffodils that grow there. Climb the hill a bit and you’ll find a walking path with an incredible view of fields of Echizen daffodils. It is less touristry which made the place quiet and calm. Its a good opportunity to relax and unwind here and I felt being rewarded by the refreshing view of the green hill and the clear blue water of Japan Sea. It was just wonderful! #givethanks #givethanks
