Morioh Landmark #2: Boyoyoing Cape (ボヨヨン岬, Boyoyon Misaki).
A fisherman started the rumor when he saw Yukako falling from the cliff and Koichi using Echoes ACT2 to place a "bounce" sound on a spiked rock at the bottom. It was assumed to be a girl who was trying to commit suicide by jumping off the cliff and miraculously bounced back up. The local fishermen all pray for good luck to this particular rock, calling it a "sacred spot." Many also believe that there is a god of the sea at work. If one asks any local fisherman where it is, they'll gladly point it out.[8]
There is a house nearby that belongs to a businessman from Tokyo who uses this house as a summer home. Yukako Yamagishi uses it to hide and lock Koichi Hirose so that she has the time to make him love her.[9]

The Cinderella (シンデレラ, Shinderera) stores motto is "Using Makeup For Finding Love." The manager and chief beautician is Aya Tsuji, a Stand user who has the ability to switch out certain parts of one's physical appearance. Unlike other salons, the establishment is different in that it uses a technique called physiognomy, where, depending on the exact shape of one's face, their fortune changes accordingly; basically, by changing the customer's face, the fate of the customer is changed as well. To determine the finished product, the salon uses high-tech computer-generated images.
The salon is located two minutes from Morioh Station by walking. It is closed on Tuesdays. It is unknown what happened to the salon after Aya's death.

Morioh Landmark #8: Futatsumori Tunnel (二ッ杜トンネル, Futatsu Mori-Tonneru, lit. Twin Forests Tunnel).
Completed in Kaei 5 (1852), the tunnel is used for vehicular road traffic coming from the north into South Morioh. On the front of the tunnel, the Morioh Logo is visible. It is located on the outskirts of Morioh, next to Trussardi's and the cemetery. One must pass the tunnel if they were traveling from Morioh High School to downtown Morioh. Josuke Higashikata passes through this tunnel when taking the bus going home from school. The tunnel is 450 m long.[13]
It was renovated in Showa 58 (1983) and has an approximate length of 450 meters. The tunnel's curvature has resulted in a lack of proper lighting and a plethora of accidents.[14] At some point, Yuya Fungami's Stand, Highway Star, created a room within the tunnel to lure unsuspecting victims through the use of illusions in order to capture and drain them of their nutrients.
