Japan|Guide to chasing the light in the "Path of Light" around Fukuoka, you will have to wait for half a year if you miss it

For this light, I flew 2000 kilometers ✈️ I heard that anyone who sees it will be lucky for the whole year‼ ️ Finally, I saw with my own eyes the 1,600-year-old miracle of Miyajidake Shrine, the "Path of Light" that is said to appear only twice a year. 🌅During the "Sunset Festival" in February and October every year, when the setting sun penetrates the 800-meter shrine road and reaches the sea, the setting sun will fall right at the end of the shrine road. The sunset glows all over the sky and dyes the entire sea into an orange sea🍊. It seems that the gods have paved a golden road on earth. Everyone who sees it will be moved to tears on the spot~ 🌸 Be sure to code in February! ! There are awesome Easter eggs 🎊. As the golden light of the approach to the shrine falls straight to the coastline, the early cherry blossoms in the side hall of the shrine also quietly bloom synchronously, with clusters of light pink dotted between the ancient trees and the red eaves. Before you know it, you have come to a niche and super beautiful cherry blossom viewing spot! Of course, the main shrine of Miyajidake Shrine is also worth a visit. It houses the largest Shimenawa rope in Japan, which weighs 3 tons, is 11 meters long and 2.6 meters in diameter. It is said to have been made by 1,500 people. 🌊The end of the Light Path is the sea. If you have enough time, you can go to the beach in the afternoon. After watching the sea, walk to the "Miyajidake Shrine" for about 15-20 minutes. On the way, you will pass by a white house. It is really comfortable to have a cup of coffee, eat an ice cream and take a break there. If you happen to come to Kyushu in February, don’t miss the wonderful moment of this seasonal limited edition [Light + Sakura]~ ⛩️ Miyajidake Shrine 🚆 Depart from Fukuoka Hakata Station, take the JR to Fukuma Station and transfer to the bus (about 50 minutes) #FukuokaTravel #Path of Light #JapaneseShrine #SpringCherryBlossomViewing #FukuokaItinerary
