Ref.#13 3305~ Itsukushima Shrine
Itsukushima Shrine, Mijajima Island, Japan ~ The shrine has been destroyed several times, but the first shrine buildings were probably erected in the 6th century. The present shrine dates from the mid-16th century, and is believed to follow an earlier design from the 12th century when funds were provided by the warlord Taira no Kiyomori. The shrine was "devoted to the worship of goddesses to whom Kiyomori owed thanks, he felt, for his success in life."
