This is
Mitsukejima, a Japanese island also known as Gunkanjima or “Battleship Island.” It looks the part, don’t you think?
It’s
located
just south of Suzu, Ishikawa, Japan. According to legend, the Eighth
Century Japanese monk Kōbō-Daishi named the island after its resemblance
to a warship. Mitsukejima
measures
about 30 meters high, 50 meters wide and 150 meters long. Visitors can
reach it over a rocky causeway built from the shore. It’s considered a
romantic place for couples to go.
