History
Itsukushima Shrine stands in Sumoto, honoring the three goddesses as does its great sister shrine in Hiroshima. By the sea, it has long protected waters and guided safe passage for all who venture forth. Its sacred presence speaks to the strength of women and the depths of the divine ocean.
