Hi everyone. I am planning to visit Motonosumi Shrine, will be driving there.

On Google maps, it states it opens at 9.30am. Is it an issue if I reach there at 7.30 or 8am? Will I be able to access and walk to that long stretch of torii gates?

I asked because it seems so outdoor and feels like it's accessible any time of the day.

Hi all! I am going to cycle solo at the Shimanami Kaido in 2 weeks (super excited!!).

I have a question regarding my rental bike. Do I need to bring my own lock when I go there? When I go for meals, restrooms, etc?
