Perched above a bustling fishing port, Miyagi's sacred Shiogama Shrine has safeguarded sailors for over 1,200 years. Ascend the magnificent 230 stone steps beneath a canopy of ancient cedars, each step purifying your spirit as the sea whispers below.
Within the main hall, discover breathtaking Heian-era craftsmanship – lacquered pillars adorned with golden phoenixes, and the dense, smoky aroma of centuries of prayers hanging in the air. Don't miss the unique salt offering ritual, where locals present mounds of shimmering sea salt at the altar for protection and abundance.
