The Motonosumi Shrine is a popular attraction in Yamaguchi and for good reason, it's beautiful! The gates and scenery are just gorgeous, the coast here is wonderful. When arriving at the gates, it can seem a bit chaotic with the parking and crowds. The parking is pretty organized, although not free it is very cheap. You then walk from the parking lot to the shrine and can walk through the gates all the way to the cliff edges. If you are into photography, you can get incredible shots almost anywhere here. If you come on a sunny day, the red gates look amazing with the green plants and blue sky. I would say an hour is a good amount of time to spend here. It is far away from the east side of Yamaguchi, but there are other nearby attractions, so plan a full day for it. The Motonosumi Shrine is gorgeous and well worth a visit.
