This shrine is located inside a big cave at waterfront connected with entrance with a long staircase which makes this shrine worth visiting.

Nice walk along the gorge from Mihashi to Shinbashi Bridge with lovely autumn colours along the route. The waterfall beside Mihashi Bridge is pretty, but not very spectacular. Quite interesting to see how the river has carved a route through the basalt columns of the gorge. Note that there are quite a number of stairs along the route, with no slopes for wheelchairs or prams. Parking beside Mihashi Bridge is most convenient, but is very limited. Do come early.

Located just 3 minute walk from the Amano-Iwato shrine, past cafes, descend the steps, over a stone bridge & listen to the sound of the gentle river flowing through a highly spiritual place. Even though the cave at the end is not the one that Amaterasu hid in (that can be viewed from lookout behind the shrine (viewing on hour & half hour) it is spectacular because of the plethora of stone pagodas. Without explanation, I believe these may symbolize pagodas built by lost/dead children (or their parents) at a Sai no Kawara, a riverbed which leads to hell. It is said an ogre keeps knocking down the pagodas but a Bodhisattva shields pagodas & the children to avoid hell.

This is one of the best places to see Nippo-Kaigan Quasi-National Park. There are two lookout points on top of the precepitous cliff that offer a great view of the hexagonal rock columns that make up the cliff and the Pacific Ocean. Looking at the horizon, you can make out the curve of the earth.
