One hour by boat from Unten Port in northern Okinawa. Izena Island is famous for its power spots,The Rock Seat of GodThere is a power spot overlooking Izena Island called
It is one of the places you should definitely visit when you come to Izena Island!
Iwaza of God (Izena Island)
If you are driving, check the map for the Izena Mountain Forest Park parking lot, then drive up the hill to where you can drive up. Walking or biking is also possible, but it is quite steep lol.
The mountain road leads further up the mountain, and the scenery along the way is truly beautiful!
We arrived at the rock seat of God. I sat at the very end of the rock that juts out to the side. It would be very dangerous if you fall off, so please do not overreach yourself.
I hope the pictures show you how good this view is. But I want you to see it in person with your own eyes!
She was seated on a rock in the foreground because she was "scared".
I'm willing to pay for the round-trip boat ride and get a little seasick just to see this view! LOL!
Review of Okibara
The beauty of the surrounding pine trees and the beautiful sea of Izena seen beyond them is a view that is hard to find anywhere else. It may be a sense of accomplishment from climbing the mountain path, but it is also a moving experience!
It must be called a power spot because it even has the word "god" in its name. Please visit there on a clear day!
