The stunning view of Fukuoka Jigoku Shrine 🌆Who understands this sense of fate?

#FukuokaItinerary
The thousand-year-old Miyajigoku Shrine⛩️ overlooks the Fukuma Coast
The two are connected by an ancient east-west approach
In February and October every year
which means the spring equinox☘️and the autumn equinox🍁
The sunset🌇will slowly spread from the coast
to every brick and stone of the approach
This forms the famous Fukuoka scenery
——The Road of Light

Miyajidake Shrine itself has a history of more than a thousand years. Its approach is designed to extend to the seaside. Due to its special location, at sunset in February and October every year, the sunset will form a golden light belt with the approach, which is called the "Road of Light".

In 2016, Japan Airlines (JAL) invited the popular group "Arashi" to shoot the commercial "The Path of Light" here, making this landscape quickly become a popular check-in spot and attracting a large number of overseas tourists.

At certain times of the year, the perfect alignment of the shrine approach and the setting sun occurs naturally. The shrine holds a "Sunset Festival" for this purpose and optimizes the viewing experience by restricting the access area to the shrine.

The Sunset Festival at Miyajidake Shrine is held over a period of about 10 days between mid-February and mid-October every year. If you plan to visit, it is recommended to pay attention to the shrine's official website or tourist information in advance to arrange your itinerary. Or in advance 💬Little Snail🙋
