Akama Shrine

Address: 4-1 Amidaijicho, Shimonoseki, Yamaguchi 750-0003, Japan. Getting there: The Akama Shrine is just opposite the Akamajingumae bus station. Highlights: Akama Shrine is a Shinto shrine overlooking the Kanmon Strait. It is dedicated to the spirit of child Emperor Antoku who perished in the 12th century Battle of Dannoura, which took place not far from the shrine. At the entrance of the shrine stands the prominent Suitenmon gate which carries a vermilion roof on top of a white arch foundation. Even those it's in the middle of an important and busy street, it feels completely isolated and very calm. The popping colours and nice scenery makes this Shrine very worth it to visit. 😍 Opening hours: 9am to 5pm daily Admission fee: 100yen to enter the treasure hall #bucketlistreboot #traveljapan #culturewalk
