"There is a mountain park called “Odayama”. Also there is one more name here. It is “love forest”. There is a main tower which is called “Kimisarazu tower” on the top of the mountain park in KIsarazu. You can see the big statue of a couple on the ship (it is also statue). Kisarazu has a tragedy love story in their history. And the statue was made after this history. Once upon a time, a man named “Yamato-takeru-no-mikoto” and his wife named “Oto-tachibana-hime” were living with together. One day, “Yamato-takeru-no-mikoto” was trying to across the sea to go to “Kazusa-no-kuni” where present “Chiba” is. However the sea was very stormy and his wife thought that it an anger of sea god. And then, she threw herself into the sea to soothe the anger. After he could get his destination　safety though her death, he left one poem for his wife. “Kimisarazu
Sodeshi-ga-ura-ni-tachunami-no
Sono-omokage-wo-miruzo-kanashiki”
「君さらず 袖しが浦に立つ波の その面影をみるぞ悲しき」 in JapaniseIt means “I could get here, but when I see the sea from here , it reminds me of you. I can’t leave here because I miss you so much” Where he left this poem is “Kisarazu”. His poem became the origin of a city name “Kisarazu”. Also it is said that he couldn’t　leave there for a long time. The tower has a sad but very romantic love story. "
