My favorite part was the view of the sea from the parking lot

A significant temple, though the architecture of it is fairly okay. You will come here to pray as this the the most important shrine in the area, and not so much of a tourist visit spot.

This is an Ichinomiya shrine, which means that it was the foremost shrine in the area in which it stands. In Japan it is tradition to pray at a shrine on New Year's day.

It’s definitely worth coming. Beautiful calm place.

One of the five important shrines in Japan,so they say. The shrine name appears in old documents that dates back more than 1500 years.Behind the shrine is ten thousand tsubo forest (about 40000 sq meters.) Nobody can step into this forest and the chief priest says the forest itself is God, good example of Japanese shinto animism. You can hike around the forest that take about 45 minutes. As a very old institution, the shrine inherited many ceremonies and legends. Former emperor Hirohito, who was something of a naturalist, paid a visit here to be allowed to step into the sacred forest a few steps and left a waka poem. A historical landmark and possible power spot in the area.
