Was macht diesen Ort besonders?

Auf einen Blick

Okutsumiya ist der innerste Schrein im Enoshima Shrine-Komplex auf der Insel Enoshima in Fujisawa, Kanagawa. Er ist bekannt für seine malerische Lage am Meer, sein historisches Torii-Tor und seine kunstvolle Deckenmalerei und zieht Besucher zum höchstgelegenen Schreinbezirk der Insel.

Warum du gehen solltest

Okutsumiya is the innermost shrine of the Enoshima Shrine complex on Enoshima Island in Fujisawa, Kanagawa.

Its precinct sits at the island's highest shrine location, giving Okutsumiya a more secluded feel than lower areas of Enoshima Shrine.

The torii gate at Okutsumiya was donated by Minamoto no Yoritomo, the first shogun of Japan who founded the Kamakura Shogunate in 1192, making it a priceless artifact of samurai history.

Among Enoshima Shrine's precincts, Okutsumiya is described as a quiet worship site despite being one of the island's signature scenic spots.

Wissen Sie es, bevor Sie gehen

Budget at least 10 minutes for the uphill walk from Nakatsumiya to reach Okutsumiya, which sits at the highest point of the Enoshima Shrine complex. Wear comfortable walking shoes as this is the most elevated shrine precinct on the island.
Wear comfortable shoes; Okutsumiya is in the innermost precinct and at one of Enoshima Shrine's highest points, so the approach involves uphill walking.
Plan to visit during weekday mornings if possible, as Okutsumiya's location at the highest point of the island means it receives fewer visitors than the lower shrines. This allows for a more peaceful and contemplative shrine experience.
Plan extra time to reach it: Okutsumiya is the deepest shrine area in the Enoshima complex, not a quick stop near the entrance.
If you're visiting Enoshima Shrine to pray for improved economic fortune, make sure to complete your pilgrimage at all three sub-shrines including Okutsumiya. The shrine complex is well known for blessings related to financial prosperity.
Visit Okutsumiya as part of your complete Enoshima Shrine pilgrimage, which consists of three shrines (Hetsumiya, Nakatsumiya, and Okutsumiya), each dedicated to a different deity. Okutsumiya is the innermost and final shrine in this sacred complex.
Bring a camera for the exterior views; the shrine is noted for its scenic seaside setting and historic torii gate.
Look up when you visit: the shrine is specifically known for a refined ceiling painting, so don't focus only on the seaside views.
