Angel Road on Shodoshima Island is a mysterious sandy road that appears with the ebb and flow of the tide. At low tide, a 500-meter sandy road appears, stretching from Bentenjima to Yoshima, and can be walked across. A romantic legend has it that if you cross this road holding hands with your loved one, your wish will come true, drawing many couples and families. The "Promise Hill Observatory Bell," rung from the Promise Hill Observatory across the road, is particularly popular as a place to pledge your love.

Angel Road's charm also lies in its beautiful scenery. At dusk, the sun setting over the Seto Inland Sea bathes the sandy road in a golden hue, creating a mystical sight. This is a popular time of day, drawing many visitors. Since it can only be crossed at low tide, it's important to check the tide table beforehand. Angel Road's scenery changes dramatically with the tides, offering new discoveries every time you visit.

[Hidden Gem]
From halfway up the stairs leading to the Promised Hill Observatory, you can look down on the entire Angel Road. The sandy road is particularly visible at low tide, making it ideal for photography.

[Useful Tips]
If you miss low tide, the road will be submerged and you won't be able to cross. It's essential to check the tide table beforehand. Also, keep in mind that the tides vary daily.
