Starting Sunday, February 1, 2026, we will be holding the "Akari no Moribito Stamp Rally," a collaborative project with the popular nationwide lighthouse personification project "Akari no Moribito."
Visit the two lighthouses that Shima City is proud of, Daiosaki Lighthouse and Anorisaki Lighthouse, and enjoy collecting stamps of the characters who protect each lighthouse.
This is a perfect plan for a stroll, where you can experience the unique scenery and history of Shima while visiting the lighthouse.

"Guardian of the Light" is a project that anthropomorphizes lighthouses across Japan and revives the history and culture of lighthouses as "guardians of the sea," a role that they have played for many years, as a modern story (original IP).
The unique historical background of each lighthouse is visualized through entertainment such as animation and voice dramas, and the new appeal of lighthouses is communicated both domestically and internationally.
From Shima City, the Daiozaki Lighthouse and Anorizaki Lighthouse appear as iconic settings for the story.
They have been personified as unique "guardians (characters)" based on their respective histories.
