[Kagoshima] The place where Urashima Taro and the princess met ⛩

Introducing Ryugu Shrine in Kagoshima Prefecture!

This shrine, located in Ibusuki City, Kagoshima Prefecture, is said to have been named Ryugu Shrine because it's the place where Urashima Taro, famous for his encounter with the princess in the folktale, met the princess.

For this reason, Ryugu Shrine is known as a power spot for matchmaking.💕

The magnificent red shrine building, reminiscent of Ryugu Castle, will make you feel like you've entered a fairy tale.😌

If you walk to the very end of the shrine, you'll also find the southernmost point of the Satsuma Peninsula, known as "Nagasaki Nose"!

Be sure to visit it when you visit Kagoshima.🌟
