On April 30, 2022, I landed on Sarushima, the only uninhabited island in Tokyo Bay. There, we saw a fusion of beautiful nature and buildings left behind by the former Japanese military.
Beautiful Sarushima
Sarushima is an uninhabited island located on the opposite shore from the Yokosuka Naval Base. Therefore, in preparation for a decisive battle on the mainland in World War II, a gun battery was set up on the high ground to defend the naval base and was supposed to attack fighter planes in the sky and battleships at sea. However, it was never used. Therefore, the equipment was never attacked or otherwise left untouched. It is possible to come here on a day trip from Tokyo and easily dive into another world. It is a recommended spot for camera enthusiasts and those who love ruins. https://sarushima. jp/( Sarushima website)

Tunnels are carved all over the island to carry the balls of the gun batteries. This is its entrance.

Do you recognize this tunnel? Yes, it is the stage of Descrimson.

The base of the turret. The view is quite good.

Bolt and nut of the time. A puddle has formed, showing the change of the times.

A watchtower from those days. It was quite dilapidated and the stairs could not be used. A fun place for ruin fans.

Was the ball of the turret preserved at that time?
Photo route this time

From Yokosuka Chuo Station, a 10-minute walk to Mikasa Park.
From Mikasa Park, you can enjoy a cruise to Sarushima for about 2,000 yen for a round trip.
You can jump into another world right from Tokyo. It is a recommended place.
