(1) Japan Name : めおといわ夫婦岩
Chinese Name: [二見浦夫婦岩]
English Name :[Futamigaura Couple Rocks]
These two iconic rocks, resembling a married couple standing side by side, hold a special significance in Japanese culture.

Legend has it that these rocks symbolize a harmonious marriage, as they are always together regardless of the weather or sea conditions. The larger rock represents the husband, while the smaller one represents the wife. It's quite fascinating how nature has crafted these rocks to resemble a loving couple.

As we stand here admiring the Meoto Iwa, take a moment to appreciate the strong bond they represent. Just like the waves of the sea that crash upon them, relationships can face challenges, but through understanding and support, they can endure the test of time, just like these rocks have done for centuries.

So, let's soak in the beauty of this natural wonder and remember the importance of unity and companionship that the Meoto Iwa remind us of.

As you take your seat on the swing, let yourself be transported into a state of pure relaxation. The gentle back-and-forth motion of the swing combined with the mesmerizing backdrop of palm trees and ocean views creates a feeling of serenity that's simply unparalleled.

You can even take a refreshing dip right here. During the sizzling summer months, this is your cool haven, your aquatic escape.Many Japanese locals flock here to indulge in the joys of swimming and swinging.

So, my friends, let's embark on this wonderful experience together.
