Shimoji-jima's Historical Spot, A Huge Guardian Deity Of RockObi-iwa Rock
A huge stone called 'Obi-iwa' is said to have been carried ashore by big wave. The threat of high waves that may carry the big stone is immeasurable. But now, this place became a spiritual support for big-catch of fish and safety for a sailing.
