Takaya Shrine, also known locally as Inazumi Shrine, is perched atop Mt. Inazumi in Kanonji, offering breathtaking views of the city and the Seto Inland Sea through its iconic "Sky Torii" gate. This ancient shrine, with roots dating back before 1600, is accessible by car, though restrictions may apply on weekends and holidays, with shuttle bus services available. The final climb to the torii can be steep, but the panoramic vista is well worth the effort, especially at sunset. Be sure to check the access conditions before you go. The shrine offers a unique and unforgettable experience.
