航路の目印 灯台の役割
Do you know that lighthouses protect the safety of the seas?
Ships, which sail over the broad ocean, travel through
sea lanes safely by taking care not to hit any rocks or
run aground in the shallows.
Lighthouses are essential markers providing safe passage.
On October 30, just before Lighthouse Day on November 1,
the chinazaki Lighthouse, which is located in the China
section of Nanjo City's Chinen district, was opened
to the piblic.
Children also climbed up the lighthouse and learned
how it works and the role it plays.
