About Kin Wan Lighthouse
A square cylindrical white concrete tower, Kin Wan lighthouse stood 10 meters tall on a hill south of Ishikawa. Its light, positioned 5 meters above sea level, offered a geographic range of 3 nautical miles. This structure guided vessels navigating Kin Bay toward the port of Ishikawa. The lighthouse was operational but has been inactive since 2008, and evidence suggests it has since been demolished.
Why it matters: The Kin Wan lighthouse guided vessels across Kin Bay to the harbor of Ishikawa, assisting in safe navigation to a regional port.
