Beautiful, magnificent complex painted in red. Great territory and almost complete absence of people. But no one is prevented from visiting the sights.

Original Text

I actually worshiped and learned that it was a fairly large and famous shrine, but I didn't get on the guidebook. When I worshiped, there were no other people, so I was able to slowly visit Okumiya. God gathered in Izumo Hotokuyama Inari Taisha Shrine, which you will visit after Izumo Taisha Shrine, is a must-visit! The offering is a five-color candle. I want to go again. I want to go to the year-end festival someday.
