While Japanese-style lighthouses have existed in Japan since before the Edo Period, the Western-style lighthouses that continue to be seen today were created from the beginning of the Meiji Period. 150 years have passed since then, and we are now in a period that questions the meaning of having lighthouses. There are hopes for local community organizations to promote utilization of lighthouses for tourism. As a fan of lighthouses, I would like to spread their cultural meaning and appeal.
