Mount Washu is 133 metres high and stands at the southern tip of Honshu's Okayama coast, looking straight down the Seto Ohashi bridge as it steps across more than fifty islands to Shikoku. It was one of the first areas designated in Setonaikai National Park, and it is the view Japanese guidebooks reach for when they need one image of the Inland Sea.

There are three viewpoints at different heights. The second observation deck is a few steps from the car park; the first requires a short walk; the summit, called Shoshuho, is a proper if brief climb and is where the multi-island composition works best. Sunset is the reason most people come — the bridge lights come on as the sun goes down behind the islands, and the site is on the national list of a hundred best sunsets.

**Three viewpoints, and only one of them needs effort.** The second deck is at the car park. The summit is ten minutes up and is where the fifty-odd islands separate out properly. **Sunset, and stay for the bridge lights.** The Seto Ohashi is lit after dark and the gap between the sun going and the lights coming up is the best fifteen minutes. **The bridge is a road and railway together.** Trains run on the lower deck, which is visible from up here and is the detail most photographs miss. **Shimotsui below is a working port.** The old town at the foot of the hill was the crossing point to Shikoku before the bridge and still has its wooden shipping agents' houses and a tako-meshi octopus rice trade. **Kojima is denim.** The jeans street is nearby and is where most of Japan's denim is made, which pairs oddly and well with an afternoon on the headland.
