Hilltop Shrine of the Sea Goddess
Climbing the maze of narrow lanes that thread up Ogijima's hillside brings you to Toyotamahime Shrine, dedicated to the goddess Toyotamahime, a deity of the sea and of safe childbirth. From its quiet precinct and stone steps, the rooftops of the island village tumble down to the harbour and the glittering Inland Sea beyond. A peaceful counterpoint to the island's contemporary art, the shrine carries the older rhythms of a fishing community's faith.
