About Muroran
Muroran is a port city on the south coast of Japan's Hokkaidō island. Across its harbor, the broad span of Hakuchō Bridge is lit up at night. Mt. Sokuryo has a park with panoramic views of the bridge and the city. There are falcons and rock formations on the coast near Masuichi Beach. The Cape Chikyu Lighthouse overlooks Uchiura Bay, home to whales and dolphins, and the distant Mt. Komagatake volcano across the bay.
