Itsukushima Shrine is one of Japan’s most iconic Shinto shrines, famous for its “floating” torii gate that appears to rise from the sea at high tide. Located on Miyajima Island, the shrine dates back to the 12th century and is dedicated to the deities of the sea and safe voyages. Built over the water on wooden stilts, Itsukushima Shrine harmonizes beautifully with the surrounding mountains and the Seto Inland Sea. As part of a UNESCO World Heritage Site, it offers visitors not only architectural beauty but also a profound spiritual atmosphere shaped by centuries of worship and tradition.
