Enoshima Iwaya Cavern

About

These Enoshima caves were formed within the island by wave erosion. The complex consists of two caves: the First Cave (with a depth of 152m) and the Second Cave (with a dept of 56m). It is said that Kobo Daishi and Minamoto no Yorimoto once visited the caves as to pray to the Goddess Benzaiten as they are considered the origin of Benzaiten worship. There is also a gallery introducing Enoshima history and culture inside the caves, allowing visitors to explore history with a sense of thrill.
