[Shimane] A remote worship site for Ebisu's fishing spot

It is located on the promenade of Mihonoseki Lighthouse. The name is said to refer to the island floating in the sea 4km from the center of this torii gate, called "Okino-Gozen," and the island below, called "Jino-Gozen." It is said to be the fishing island of Kotoshironushi-no-kami (the deity worshipped at Miho Shrine, commonly known as Ebisu-sama). It is an exclave of Miho Shrine. If it were sunny, you would be able to see Okino-Gozen beyond the torii gate, but unfortunately it was cloudy. It was a mysterious place of remote worship. ✱----------------------------------------------- Name: Okino Gozen, Chi no Gozen [Location] Mihonoseki Lighthouse [Address] Jizozaki, Mihonoseki-cho, Matsue City, Shimane Prefecture [Opening hours] September to June 10:00-16:00 July and August 10:00-17:00 (Lighthouse Buffet) [Closed] Thursday (Lighthouse Buffet) *Only the shop is open on Wednesdays Visit date: June 2024 -----------------------------------------------✱ #Domestic travel #China tourism #Mihonoseki Lighthouse #Okino Gozen # Chi no Gozen # Chi no Gozen #Miho Shrine #Power spot #Prayer #Breathtaking view #Tourism #Matsue #Shimane #Shimane tourism #Historical sites #Places that feel history
