While sightseeing in Okinawa, I visited Naminoue Shrine, the Okinawan guardian deity.
Naminoue Shrine is revered as the most prestigious of the Ryukyu Hachisha Shrines, which have been treated specially by the Ryukyu Kingdom.
Going through the torii gate, you will find a shrine with a tropical atmosphere.
The main hall is made of Ryukyu tiles and the guardian lions are shisa. It has a very Okinawan feel to it and is very nice. There are also many wonderful amulets!
This shrine is also famous as a power spot and attracts many tourists. It is said to bring various benefits, including "safety at sea," "bountiful harvests," "easy childbirth," "longevity," "fulfillment of wishes," and "prayer for good relationships." If you have time, why not visit it as a memento of your trip? It is the most prestigious shrine in Okinawa. It was a rare and very wonderful shrine enshrined on a rock.
