I met a wonderful cherry blossom in Takachiho Gorge in Miyazaki Prefecture. 20230328

This is the view from the ruins of Nango Castle in Nichinan City, Miyazaki Prefecture. It is my favorite spot with the sea, islands, townscapes and iron bridges spreading out below. And in spring, the early-blooming cold cherry blossoms further color the scenery. This is private land, but the owner has maintained it and opened it free of charge in the hope that many people will enjoy the scenery of the former mountain castle. While chewing on gratitude, this scenery as if you were the owner of the castle is exceptional.

It is Udo Shrine, the regent shrine of Omi Shrine in Hyuga City, Miyazaki Prefecture. The rock cave with a height of 20 m, a width of 8 m, and a depth of 40 m is said to have been dug by human hands thousands of years ago, and this rock cave is said to be a dragon palace and the body of a dragon, and the rock cave itself is considered to be the spiritual area. Near the innermost shrine, if you look at the exit of the rock cave from a certain angle, you can see a white dragon ascending to the heavens. I first visited there about five years ago. If you walk for about 10 minutes while looking at the sea from Omi Shrine, which is famous for its rustling stones, you will reach a steep descending staircase. If you descend cautiously, you will see a rock cave with a wide open mouth and a torii gate dyed in vermilion deep in the rock face where the waves crash. I felt a strange power in its majestic appearance, and I hesitated for a moment to enter the cave.

This is the scenery of Qingdao in Miyazaki Prefecture. To the clear sky and the blue of the sea, The bumpy rock surface stood out. Be careful not to slip, try to stand on the rocks ... The pattern spreads as if carved by a sculptor on a whim. Gunyagunya, Pokopoko... This is creepy and a little scary... When I returned to the inn and investigated, it was a "demon's laundry rock" that had been built over a long period of time. Qingdao is an island formed by the accumulation of shells, so There are many small shells and sea grass at your feet...! When you arrive at Aoshima Shrine, The jungle-like landscape spreads out. This is a shrine, right? ... I think. Passing through the arches of plants and trees, you feel the excitement of an adventurer. With nature like a tropical country, It's like a combination of Japan cultures... It was a wonderful place where you can enjoy the extraordinary in a spacious space. I would like to go there again.

What a cool photo. I keep seeing pictures and stuff of Takachiho Gorge and I really want to go. I watched a video of it on here recently and it was really beautiful. Miyazaki seems like a really fun place to visit in general so it'd fun to get out there and try the boats and see all of the natural scenery. It had some really nice looking shrines that I was interested in visiting as well. It's so hard to visit all of the beautiful places scattered throughout Japan but I've got time so I'm gonna do my best lol. Earned some flight miles this year so I'm definitely heading out somewhere this summer. Maybe it'll be Miyazaki, we'll see. Although I've had my eye on Nagano lately as well so it's a toss up for now.
