Kamishikimi Kumanoimasu Shrine

Amano Iwato Shrine
Amano Iwato Shrine, famous for the tradition of stacking stones to make wishes at Amano Yasugawara, is located in Takachiho Town, Nishiusuki District, Miyazaki Prefecture. The shrine is dedicated to the sacred Amano Iwato, believed to be inhabited by divine spirits. It is renowned as a spiritual site known for its great healing powers and its ability to bring good fortune. Visitors seeking divine protection through sacred seals and amulets flock to the shrine in an unending stream.
Amano Yasugawara Cave
It is said that stacking stones and making a wish here will lead to the fulfillment of that wish. As a result, many visitors have built numerous stone towers as part of their prayers.

Takachiho Gorge
Takachiho Gorge is a valley formed by volcanic eruptions from Mount Aso in ancient times. It is characterized by cliffs on both sides and the 17-meter-high Manai Waterfall. Adding to the stunning scenery are three bridges that span the same gorge, contributing to the overall beauty of Takachiho Gorge.
