[Ikonahime Shrine/Shizuoka Prefecture] Izu's oldest shrine and cherry blossoms

Ikonahime Shrine in Shimoda, Shizuoka Prefecture

𓂃◌𓈒𓐍 𓂃◌𓈒𓐍𓂃◌𓈒𓐍𓂃
The main deity is Ikonahime, the goddess of love, wisdom, and beauty.

Her consort is Mishima Daimyojin.

She is the same deity as the one enshrined at Mishima Taisha, the Ichinomiya of Izu Province.

Mishima Daimyojin created the islands off the coast of Izu, and each island has its consort and child deities,
and there is a place on the coast where you can worship from afar.

There are not many Kawazu cherry blossoms🌸 in the grounds of Ikonahime Shrine, which is said to be the oldest shrine in Izu.
You can also go to the main shrine and see the cherry blossoms there, so don't miss it!
