NEW✔ Sumiyoshi Taisha Shrine - Osaka ᴴᴰ ● 住吉大社 大阪

► Osaka’s most famous shrine by far, is Sumiyoshi Taisha (Sumiyoshi Grand Shrine) - founded in 211, and the headquarter of some 2000 Sumiyoshi shrines throughout Japan. It enshrines three gods that have long been worshiped for protecting the nation. The shrine’s symbol, the gracefully arched Taiko-bashi bridge, spans the pond in front of the shrine. It’s a great place to visit, and offers a nice, peaceful contrast to the otherwise more noisy neighborhoods of Osaka. - Enjoy!
