There are many rice fields in the area, and the idyllic scenery spreads out. Dead Kiura Legend It is said that Maizuru East Port used to be called "Karikigaura". A long time ago, two gods, Sukunahikona and Onamuchi, climbed Mt. Kasamatsu to build a country here and want a clean island in the sea. There is a legend that four islands, Toshima, Jashima, Karasushima, and Fuchishima (currently Ukishima), have gathered in Dead Kiura.
