【Miyazaki・Udo Shrine】 Embark on a journey to entrust your wishes to the Pacific Ocean.

⛩🌊 【Miyazaki・Udo Shrine】 Entrust your wishes to the Pacific Ocean. Did you know there's a shrine nestled within a cliff? And not just any shrine—the vibrant red main hall is built facing the ocean, with the sound of waves echoing continuously. This is Udo Shrine, a breathtaking spot along Miyazaki's Nichinan Coast. The shrine, located inside a cave, is incredibly rare in Japan, creating a mystical atmosphere as if you've stepped into a world of sea and mythology.✨ One of its famous rituals is the "Undama Throw." With your wish in mind, men use their left hand and women their right to toss small unglazed clay balls toward a turtle-shaped rock in the sea. If the ball lands in the hollow, your wish is said to come true. Additionally, this shrine is highly popular for its blessings in matchmaking and safe childbirth. It's a power spot where the sea breeze seems to lighten both your heart and body.😊 ⸻ 📍 Access 3232 Miyauchi, Nichinan City, Miyazaki Prefecture 🚌 About 90 minutes by bus from Miyazaki Station, get off at "Udo Shrine" and walk 10 minutes 🚗 About 45 minutes by car from Miyazaki Airport 💰 Free admission & parking available ⸻ 🔖 Tourism
