The 'Chieko-sho no Hi' monument at Kujukuri Beach bears the deep affection of poet and sculptor Takamura Kotaro for his wife Chieko. From the meeting of Kotaro and Chieko to their separation, a story of happiness and sorrow intertwines within.
'Tokyo sky, gray sky, says she wants to see the real sky' When Chieko fell ill and went to recuperate at Kujukuri Beach, Kotaro wrote a passage of this poem. Did Chieko, healed by the great nature of Kujukuri, regain the true blue sky?
Looking at the beach where beach morning glory blooms, Kotaro dedicated the poem 'Chieko riding the wind' to Chieko. However, happiness did not last long. Four years later, Chieko left this world. The thoughts of Kotaro, who longed for Chieko who traveled beyond the clouds, still remain here.
Once, it was a place where you could overlook the beautiful Kujukuri Beach, but now it is blocked by a toll road, and you cannot directly view the sea. However, around the well-maintained monument, a quiet atmosphere remains. Would you like to visit this place and seek the true sky and sea that Kotaro and Chieko sought?
