Omamori 📿, Omikuji 🔮, Goshuin 📜

Free parking available from 6:00 AM.
This is a wonderful god who is said to bring blessings to all relationships as the god of matchmaking.
After passing through the second torii gate, you will meet the main deity, Okuninushi-no-Mikoto.
The worship method here is unique, with two bows, four claps, and one bow.
The large rope at the Kagura-den hall is impressive and beautiful!
Going there early in the morning when there are fewer people, and being able to worship slowly while basking in the morning sun was a very mystical experience.
After passing through the approach, there is a copper torii gate.
A local man told me that if you touch and turn this copper torii gate, your "money luck will improve," but according to the official Q&A, this is a fabrication and not a belief that has been around since ancient times at Izumo Taisha Shrine.

The land of Japanese gods came out of the cloud big brother
as early as last year, I planted a cloud, because my friend said that this is the home of ghosts in Japan! After sitting on the special train, I found that this is actually the land of the gods in the hearts of the Japanese, and also the holy place for the love of marriage! Although Izumo Taisha is remote, it does not affect its popularity and its status as the second shrine in Japan (the first is the Ise Jingu Shrine). There are not many people coming to visit the love marriages all over the country!
If the weather is good, the beach here is a good place to watch the sunset, but unfortunately when we arrived, the weather was not good, we could only go to the beach to go!
Transportation: Depart from Songjiang City, take JR to Izumo Station, transfer to the private railway to go to Izumo Taisha Station!
Travel Tips: There are 46 cute bunny in the big club. It is said that it is easier to find a bunny with a heart! !
Floating torii gate in shizuoka.
This place is shown in the anime “Yuru camp” on season 2 eps 3 when the caracters watch the sunset.
On the autumn and winter, the sunset will fall in the middle of torii gate so people says its the face of Lake Hamana. Unfortunately i went here on early summer so i cant capture the moment, But its still beautiful.
Before the sun fall, i went to strolling around the town and ate Unagi it was so fresh and delicious. Also there are many boat to take the fish on the sea.

Exploring the Hokkaido National Museum: Discovering the History and Culture of Izumo Taisha
During my visit to Shimane Prefecture in Japan, I visited the Hokkaido National Museum located near Izumo Taisha, an excellent place for a deep dive into the history and culture of Izumo Taisha. I took thirteen photos to document this inspiring visit.
The Hokkaido National Museum displays many artifacts and materials related to Izumo Taisha, allowing for a deeper understanding of the history and stories behind this shrine. The exhibits include ancient ceremonial tools, historical documents of the shrine, and exquisite traditional crafts. Each exhibit tells a unique piece of history, giving me a more comprehensive understanding of Izumo Taisha.
Throughout the visit, I was deeply attracted to the displayed artifacts and materials, which not only showed the religious significance of Izumo Taisha but also the rich cultural heritage of the area. I particularly loved the intricate crafts, which showcased the superb skill and aesthetics of Japanese traditional craftsmanship.
The architecture of the Hokkaido National Museum itself is also a sight to behold, with the traditional Japanese architectural style complementing the surrounding natural landscape, creating a serene and solemn atmosphere. I took many photos inside and outside the museum, hoping to share these beautiful moments with everyone.
This visit to the Hokkaido National Museum not only allowed me to gain a deeper understanding of the history and culture of Izumo Taisha but also made me appreciate the charm of Japanese traditional crafts and the importance of cultural heritage. I will forever treasure these wonderful memories and look forward to returning here in the future to explore more of the beauty of history and culture.

This place is absolutely beautiful. The view from the rooms is picture perfect. I’ve never seen a more beautiful sunset - and all that right from a private terrace with a hot tub! The whole place is beautifully designed and seems to be brand new. Breakfast is delicious, though it ends early (last order at 9). All staff members were extremely friendly and forthcoming. Since there is not much to do around the hotel, this is a great place to wind down or a workation!,overall IT ok
