    "This cape is located on the eastern tip of the Shima Peninsula in Kuzaki-cho, Toba City. ""Yoroi"" means armor, while ""saki"" (""zaki"" when combined with another word) means ""cape,"" and this area's name is derived from a legend that Yamatohime-no-mikoto, an imperial princess who chose a suitable place to enshrine the goddess Amaterasu-omikami, removed her armor here. The waters in the area have been known to be treacherous since ancient times, and the majestic scenery consisting of the Yoroizaki Lighthouse standing on its tip, the surrounding reef, and the area's raging waves is counted as one of the Ten Views of Toba, 10 locations that are considered to have particularly beautiful views."

Spread across the eastern side of the Kii Peninsula, Mie prefecture boasts hundreds of kilometers of pretty coastline comprising the oyster-rich Toba city and Shima National Park all the way down to Kumano, a city that marks the beginning of part of the Kumano Kodo pilgrimage, which runs into neighboring Wakayama prefecture. However, Mie is best known for the Ise Jingu Shinto shrine inland, one of the oldest and largest shrines in the country.
