Ojima Island

Reviewed By WarnerL_12 - Pasadena, United States

The island has an important temple and many paths/trails to take you to some nice views from the island. I got there in the morning and it was already fairly busy.

Zuiganji

Reviewed By ries770 - Tokyo Prefecture, Japan

Worth a visit. You will enjoy the treasure museum as well as the newly renovated temple main hall (2006). There is a lot to see here, so you will need about 30-60 minutes for this temple. For more, check `hiddenjapanguide.com`

Godaido is just off the main road and free, so why not stop there?! You can take nice pictures of water and the temple.

Fukuurajima

Reviewed By 902siril

It was a pleasant morning walk even though the the temp was about 1C! We thoroughly enjoyed the scenic nature. It helps that we are in our comfortable boots as some paths are abit hilly and rocky. Otherwise, even the elderly can stroll comfortably. There are a few nice romantic huts for rest and just enjoy the beautiful scenery of the sea and greenery.

Fukuurabashi Bridge

Reviewed By 72cjt

The weather was pleasant. Great view and great stroll. Paid ¥200 to walk over the bridge to the island. Nice paths and nature. Definitely worth it.
