Itozu Hachiman Jinja Shrine Contains Unique Owl Statues and a Torii Gate. Kokura Kitakyushu Japan
There are many small shrines at the top of the hill surrounded by nature.
The steps are very steep, narrow and pretty tiring but the view was gorgeous.
This is the only shrine we have seen that has statues of owls.
The shrines are surrounded by nature. The photos were taken January 3, 2018.
