Sakitsu Chapel Bell & Lookout

Majestic views over the East China Sea

Sakitsu Chapel Bell is named after the Cathedral Church

The Chapel Bell is a modern lookout that is hidden from the old town below

Sakitsu Cathedral Church below the lookout

The Sakitsu Cathedral Church is the largest building in the old town below.

Sakitsu is a fishing port that stood still while the world changed 180 degrees. The Gothic style Cathedral was built in the 19th century, and while shipping has moved on to other ports, you can still find quaint family shops. Above the cathedral are a series of steps taking up to the lookout known as Sakitsu Chapel Bell. From here you can enjoy a 360 degree panorama of the surrounding mountains, bays and inlets, all untouched by man.
