What other travelers are saying about Sumiyoshi Taisha
This shrine is a little bit further away from the city centre. The red bridge was nice, but other than that not much that sets it apart from hundreds of other shrines. If you're in the area it's a nice quick 10-15 visit, but I would't travel all the way from the city centre to see it. Especially, if you've seen a lot of other shrines before.
This was a neat shrine to visit. This was part of an organized tour trip and was our very first stop. In the water are some fish and quite a few turtles swimming around. The scenery here was absolutely stunning.
This temple is accessible via Nankai line and i bought the 2 day pass. This line also takes you to the airport too and the outlet nearby the airport.
The whole vicinity is so clean and spacious. Good to relax. The famous bridge , the reflection on the water is a must to take.
Very relaxing and peaceful religious sight. The shrines are beautiful and the overall complex is built with an artistic mind. I think it's a great spot too get away from Osaka hustle bustle and to just chill out.
It is incredible to find such place that transmit calm and inner peace in the middle of the bursting city. I obviously didn’t know this was the main temple of the Sumiyoshi-branch (didn’t even know such branch existed) but from the bridge to the gardens to the different small shrines it was all spectacular yet overwhelmingly peaceful.
