Acerca de

Datos rápidos: This Shinto shrine is actually a "floating" torii gate, appearing to float on the water during high tide. Its history dates back to the 12th century, making it a truly ancient and sacred site.

Destacados: Witness the awe-inspiring Great Torii Gate, a UNESCO World Heritage site, seemingly float on the sea during high tide. The vibrant vermilion color against the blue water and surrounding greenery is a sight you won't forget.

Consejos de expertos

  • Wear comfortable shoes as you'll be doing a lot of walking, especially if you explore the island's hiking trails.
  • Capture stunning photos of the Great Torii Gate during early morning or late afternoon for the best light and fewer crowds.
  • Don't miss the chance to sample local delicacies like Momiji Manju (maple leaf-shaped cakes) and fresh oysters from the street vendors.
  • If you plan to visit during peak seasons like cherry blossom or autumn foliage, book accommodations and transport well in advance.
