A cave shrine well off the beaten track

<p>There is a map at the start. Make sure you take the first right.</p>

<p>This is the start point. Through the torii and up the steps!</p>

<p>This sign is about 100 m up the steps. Make sure you go right!</p>

<p>The path is marked along the way with signposts.</p>

<p>There's a little bit of adventure involved, so I'd advise against wearing sandals!</p>

<p>The first view of the cave shrine as you descend the steps.</p>

<p>Another view from the rocks near the water's edge.</p>

<p>You walk through these toriis when you're finished. A perfect ending!</p>

When people go to Miyazaki's Udo Jingu, most tend to go the main shrine. But if you veer off to the left before you get to the main shrine, there are a number of smaller shrines to view and forest paths you can take on your own adventure. One of them leads to a great little cave shrine where uncrowded, spiritual bliss awaits. There is a bit of climbing involved, but most reasonably fit people can manage it with ease. Enjoy this hidden gem and listen as the waves wash across the rocks. Serenity now!
