[Awaji Island Minami Awaji] ✨⛩️The sacred place where the Japanese gods were born⛩️✨

Deities: Izanagi-no-Mikoto, Izanami-no-Mikoto Jointly enshrined: Kikurihime-no-Mikoto, also known as Kukurihime-no-Mikoto I'm sure you've all heard of these names before. Yes, this is Onokorojima Shrine, the sacred place where the Japanese gods were born. ⛩️✨ According to the Kojiki and Nihon Shoki, in the ancient Age of the Gods, at the time of the creation of the land, the two gods stood on the Heavenly Floating Bridge and stirred the ocean with the Heavenly Spear, and the water that dripped from the spear naturally solidified and became an island, which is Onokorojima. The two gods landed on this island, built Yahiroden, and first built Awaji Island, and then one after another developed the Great Eight Islands. It is written that the two gods then landed on this island, built Yahiroden, and then built Awaji Island, and one after another developed the Great Eight Islands. The shrine enshrines the two gods Izanagi and Izanami, known as the gods of matchmaking and safe childbirth. These two gods are also the parents of Amaterasu Omikami. The 21.7m-tall vermilion-painted torii gate, erected in March 1982, is an eye-catching sight. #Remote Island Travel #Shrine #Breathtaking Views
