[2025 Minamiawaji Attraction] Travel Guide for Nu Island (Updated Jul)

Onokoro Shrine is a sacred place that cannot be missed in mythology. In the "Creation of the Land Myth," Izanagi and Izanami used the Heavenly Swallowtail Spear to stir the tide from the Heavenly Floating Bridge, and the tide dripped from the tip of the spear and piled up to form "Onokoro Island." It is said that the most likely candidate for Onokoro Island is Numashima! It is also interesting that the shape of the island is like a magatama. On Numashima is the name of the shrine. To get here, you have to climb a long flight of stone steps. The view is as if it is stretching up to the sky. The main building and the main hall are simple, but this actually creates a simplicity, and there is nothing unnecessary, making it feel clean and neat. If you go a little further inside the shrine, you will find stone statues of Izanagi and Izanami. ✼••┈┈┈┈••✼••┈┈┈┈••✼ ❥❥ Onokoro Shrine ⛴Numashima Port →🚶‍♀️About 13 minutes walk ✼••┈┈┈┈••✼••┈┈┈┈••✼ #Jigyo Shrine #Onokoro Shrine #Shrine Visit #Power Spot #777 #Hyogo Tourism

A friend who lived in Awaji told me about this super hidden spot, Nushima! We're heading there by ferry! 🛥️ After entering the island, we walk up a long slope and arrive at a place where we can see rocks. It's hard to tell, but the pattern in the middle of the rock looks like a heart♡ At the time, the beach was under construction, but it seems that there are some years when it will be opened! (Please check) There were few people, it was a truly hidden place. It's a place I don't want to spread too much... I hope this post doesn't catch the eye of many people lol Please consider it as a candidate when you want to have fun without crowds😊 #FuritabiWinter

Transfer to a boat from Awaji Island and head to Numashima Port. Kamitachigamiiwa is located directly opposite the port. The huge rock shaped like the tip of a spear is 30m high. You can feel its power even from far away. What's more, the indentation actually looks like a heart! Izanagi and Izanami stirred the Nuboko (marsh spear) given to them by the heavenly gods from the floating bridge of heaven, and the droplets that fell from the tip of the spear hardened and formed an island. This is Onokoro Island, which is said to be Numashima. (In reality, there are many possible locations.) They then walked around the Heavenly Pillar and exchanged vows, and the creation myth of the country was born! This Heavenly Pillar is said to be Kamitachigamiiwa. ✼••┈┈┈┈••✼••┈┈┈┈••✼ ❥❥ Kamitatekamiiwa ⛴Numashima Port → 🚶‍♀️ 18 minute walk ✼••┈┈┈┈••✼••┈┈┈┈••✼ #Kamitatekamiiwa #HeavenlyPillar #Numashima #ShrineVisit #777 #HyogoTourism
