Overview

Enoshima is often used as the setting for films and various other productions, and is a popular spot visited by many tourists from Japan and abroad throughout the year.
Eshima Shrine is famous as the god of marriage, entertainment, music, and wisdom, and there are many gourmet foods and souvenirs to be had on the way there.
The Enoshima Iwaya, located in the southwest of the island, is a cave that was formed about 6,000 years ago by waves carving out rocks in the sea, and was shaped into its present form when an earthquake caused the entire island to rise!
Enoshima is also said to have been once inhabited by dragons, and you can see the image of dragons in various places, such as shrines and rock houses. You can even hold a candle and walk through the caves, which will make you feel as if you are actually on an adventure.

Activity itinerary

Enoshima Benzaiten Nakamisedori

Enoshima Benzaiten Nakamise Dori is a historic shopping street that runs along the approach from the Enoshima Bodai no Torii, the entrance to Enoshima, to the vermilion torii of Ejima Shrine. The street is visited by many tourists throughout the year with an increasing number of stores that have remained unchanged from the past, as well as new stores. Along the narrow, gently ascending road, 2.75 metres wide and unchanged since the Edo period, there are various stores selling famous shirasu rice bowls and seafood, Enoshima's speciality, tako senbei (octopus crackers), manju (sweet buns), souvenir stores, and inns, always crowded with many tourists.

It was founded by Minamoto no Yoritomo in the Kamakura period (1185-1333) and is surrounded by the sea. There are various shrines and buildings within the precincts of the shrine, and the red torii gate is particularly impressive. Enoshima Shrine is also an important place to pray for safety at sea and good catches of fish, and attracts many worshippers.
