Previously, friends said it wasn’t that impressive — but that’s only because they went on a cloudy day! I picked a sunny day and wow, it was breathtaking — I was literally moved to tears 😭💙
📍 Navigation tip:
First stop: Naminoue Shrine
Cleanse your hands on the left before entering
Pray & pick up an omamori — the academic one is said to be especially effective! 📚🎒
No worries if you don’t know the rituals — there's Chinese guidance on-site!
🌉 After the shrine:
Exit and turn right
Walk past the driving school, turn right again — you’ll reach a bridge
Walk up the bridge to get that god-tier view of the shrine & ocean
(⚠️ Super sunny — bring sunscreen, hat, etc.!)
🌊 Final stop:
Down from the bridge, chill on the beach with a big grilled chicken leg 🍗 while watching the waves — pure bliss 🥹💕
