The other day I visited Munakata-taisha Shrine in Kyushu.

I worshipped at Okinoshima Island from Oshima from a distance. I was glad that I could see it faintly. The atmosphere was rugged and solemn.

It is said that the island has been the object of worship and full of treasures since a very long time ago.

Munakata Taisha- Munakata (宗像) is a city in Fukuoka Prefecture and home to the three Munakata Shrines(Munakata Taisha), the head shrines of several thousand Munakata shrines found across Japan. . . . The original shrine stands on the remote, sacred island of Okinoshima which is off-limits to the public. . . . Lying along the sea route to Korea, the island has served as a place to pray for safe travel since the fourth century. . . . The other two, later established shrines stand on the Kyushu mainland and on an island near the coast. . . . Okinoshima Island and the Munakata Shrines received world heritage status in July 2017. . . . Such a pretty place! . . . #Munakata#munakatataisha #art_of_japan#as_archive#closeup_archive#color_jp#igersjp#indy_photolife#infinity_softly#ig_japan#myfeaturesshot#nat_archive#photo_shorttrip#screen_archive#unknownjapan#whim_life#けしからん風景#景色最高#その旅に物語を#日本の絶景 #Jp_mood#Linea_and_points#bestjapanpics#team_jp#Japan_of_insta#ig_phos#Travelfeature#photo_shorttrip#Photo_jpn#Special_spot_#ptk_japan#unsquares#Daily_photo_jpn#street_vision#Japan_travel#宗像大社 (at Munakata Taisha) https://www.instagram.com/p/BqLjeG3hp0x/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=n9dif29175ou
