This island reminded me of a samurai hat.


This is Yokoshima. It is said to look like a lion lying down on it's side.
Kujikushima area near Sasabo is said to have the highest concentration of islands in Japan. Kujuku (99) is a metaphor meaning a "vast number." Islands usually end in-shima or -jima, which means "island".
