⛩️A Majestic Shrine of Color and Spirit — One of Japan’s Top 3 Inari Shrines!⛩️
📍Yūtoku Inari Shrine (祐徳稲荷神社), Kashima city
Recognized alongside Kyoto’s Fushimi Inari and Ibaraki’s Kasama Inari, Yūtoku Inari Shrine is one of the Three Great Inari Shrines of Japan. ⛩️🦊
Known for its stunningly vibrant architecture, the shrine complex includes a majestic main hall, kagura (dance) hall, and grand gate — all rich in color and history.
Beyond the main hall, a path of vivid red torii gates leads to the Oku-no-in (inner shrine), offering breathtaking views of the Ariake Sea 🌊 from above.
Every year, about 3 million visitors come to experience the beauty and spiritual charm of this sacred site.
In spring, the shrine transforms into a wonderland 🌸✨ — with cherry blossoms lining the 400-meter-long approach, creating a dreamy pink tunnel.
Plus, the outer garden bursts with 50,000 blooming azaleas and fields of bright yellow canola flowers, making it a must-visit for flower lovers. 🌺🌼
