The famous torii gate at Oarai Beach, the dreamy sea of butterflies and flowers, Hitachi Seaside Park
The Oarai Isosaki Shrine, which is dedicated to the great god Omi, was founded in 856 and has a very long history. The more familiar one is the "Kamiiso Torii" standing on the rocks by the sea. It is said that the rock where the Torii is located is the place where the great god descended, so it is called "Kamiiso".
Every year, more than 1 million people from all over Japan travel here to visit and taste seafood. Because it is close to the sea, many seafood products are just caught that day, so they are fresh and affordable.
