Hi, I’m Tabi!
The former town of Shima became part of Itoshima in the 2010 merger. This guide covers Sakurai Shrine and the entrance to Sakurai Daijingu within the former town.
This guide retains the former Shima-town GID in Fukuoka; it does not cover Shima City in Mie or the former Maebaru and Nijo areas.
