Because Chichibu is situated in a basin surrounded by mountains, mist collecting on the ground tends to linger. This phenomenon, known as the Sea of Clouds, can be viewed from a large number of spots, meaning the Sea of Clouds can be enjoyed from many different perspectives. Find a spot at high altitude and gaze at the magnificence of the Sea of Clouds spread out beneath you, or admire the power of the marvel as the clouds loom before you at low altitudes.
