Kure
Kure is a city on Japan's Seto Inland Sea. It's best known for shipbuilding. By the water, Yamato Museum explores modern maritime history, with torpedoes and a scale replica of the Yamato battleship. The JMSDF Museum traces naval defense and houses the 1980s Akishio submarine. East of the city, trails lead to the peak of Mount Noro. On Kami-kamagari Island, an observatory overlooks the curved Kenmin-no-hama beach.
