    Inside, there's an exhibition hall, an observation deck, and a garden. You can see all the islands in Matsushima Bay. On a nice day, the blue sky, white clouds, and green islands are so relaxing. The rooftop observation deck is perfect for photos, and the sea breeze feels amazing.

    This shrine feels really rich with history. It has a solemn vibe, but it doesn’t feel heavy or oppressive.
