Directions

So you can choose to either hike for 45 minutes through lots of staircases or drive up narrow windy roads.

It was raining for us so we drove up but the stone paths looked fine too since it's a short hike up.

About:

Perched atop Mt. Inazumi, the Takaya Shrine's stunning torii gate frames the Seto Inland Sea and the city below, creating an unforgettable photo opportunity. Reach this spot via a short, steep walk from the summit's car park (accessible by car on weekdays or shuttle bus on weekends/holidays) or by a 40-60 minute hike up a forest trail.
