Absolutely a beautiful place to visit. The island is full of wandering deer. The deer are pretty accustomed to people so they are not afraid of us. Just be careful when you have food in your hand, cause they will literally come at you for it. There are a lot of shops and restaurants on this island. And the temple is really nice too. I was able to walk by the big torii gate before the high tide. If you have the opportunity to come and visit this place. Please do so. You won't regret it.
Totally doesn't deserve it's reputation as the third best shrine in Japan. It is small, lacking in mystery, and frankly, the big orange temple in the mud nearby is more attractive from an acritectural point of view. And there are no cats, only deer.
