Product Info

The content of this product is provided by machine translation and may not reflect the actual information, please take this into consideration before booking.

  • Japan's oldest written texts, the Kojiki and Nihon Shoki, record that the two ancestral deities, Izanagi and Izanami, created the Japanese land from Awaji Island, hence the name "Kuniumi no Shima" (Island of Creation). On this retreat (tour), you'll visit sacred rocks and megaliths, including the sacred objects of the two deities. You'll walk along Izanagi Rock and mountain paths to visit Izanami Rock and other megaliths not listed on tourist maps. Because it's a low mountain, even beginner hikers are welcome. Climbing through the narrow rock chamber of Izanami Rock will give you the feeling of being born through the birth canal. You can also enjoy the spectacular views and lie down on the megaliths, or immerse yourself in the creation myths and ancient romance as your guide unravels the mythological myths like those of the TV drama "Buratamori." Escape from everyday life and focus on the mysteries of the natural beauty of Kuniumi no Shima, where you'll relax, refresh, and rebirth your mind and body! *Recommended for* ・Tired of Awaji Island's tourist attractions ・Want to peek into the unknown world of Awaji Island ・Want to enjoy hidden places and spectacular views such as waterfalls, mountains, rural areas, and the sea ・Interested in myths, power spots, and ley lines ・Want to escape everyday life and relax and refresh Experience Schedule (The order and places you visit may change after consultation depending on the course and schedule, weather conditions, participant requests, and physical strength.) 10:00 Meeting and opening greetings Departure: Around 10:15 Travel by car (travel in your own car with the nature guide leading the way) Around 10:30 Walk around Izanagi Rock Around 11:15 Travel by car (travel in your own car with the nature guide leading the way) Around 11:35 Walk around the Iwakura/megaliths Around 12:00 Lunch (Hatchoiwa), Izanami Rock, Amano Iwafune, etc. Around 14:50 Closing greetings (on site or at the meeting point) Around 15:00 End
  • [Creation myth]
  • According to the myths of the Kojiki and Nihon Shoki, long ago, after the creation of heaven and earth and the Age of the Gods, the heavenly gods ordered Izanagi and Izanami to create a country, and the two gods stirred the salt water Amenonuboko from the floating bridge of heaven, and as the salt dripped, Onokoro Island (Numashima) was born, and they then began creating Awaji Island and the Oyashima Islands (Japan). Izanagi then went to the underworld to bring back Izanami, who died giving birth to Kagutsuchi during the country-building process, but failed and returned, and it is said that Amaterasu, Tsukuyomi, and Susanoo were born when he performed a purification ritual.
  • [What is a retreat?]
  • It's a new style of travel that differs from sightseeing, allowing you to take time away from work and everyday life to focus on yourself, relax and refresh both your body and mind.
