Udo Jingu is a beautiful shrine located in a cliff facing the sea in Nichinan City, Miyazaki Prefecture. The vermilion-painted main hall is built in a sea cave where you can feel the spray of the waves up close, creating a mystical landscape that you will rarely encounter anywhere else. The atmosphere surrounded by the power of the sea and nature alone makes it a special place worth visiting.
Udo Jingu has long been worshiped as a god of matchmaking, safe childbirth, and child-rearing. After praying at the main hall, try your hand at the famous "lucky ball throwing" game. Men throw lucky balls with their left hand and women with their right hand, and it is said that if your wish falls into a depression in the turtle stone at the bottom of the cliff, your wish will come true, and visitors are constantly trying to take on the challenge.
The path from the approach to the main hall is also a highlight, and walking with the blue sea in the background is like a scene from a movie. You can feel the sea breeze as you worship, and spend a special time reflecting on the magnitude of nature and yourself.
Why not spend a memorable time at Udo Shrine, where the bright sunlight and sacred atmosphere of the tropics coexist?
