Absolutely beautiful, green, serene, peaceful and scenic place! Don’t miss this in Gamagori. Walking around the island and visiting Yaotomi shrine was therapeutic! I watched the sunset and sat there lost in the sound of the waves hitting the island. Gamagori is beautiful ❤️

The place is nice but not much things to do. You can actually walk around the island along the sea. One good thing ab here is its spiritual meaning. If any couple walk thru the bridge, it is believed that they will end up together forever.

"竹島" Takeshima island is the symbol of Gamagori. The whole island is designated as natural monument. About 400m-long Takeshima bridge connects Takeshima and mainland. The vegitation of Takeshima is unique and different from the one of mainland. "八百富神社" Yaotomi shrine is located in the island. In the new year festival（Oshougatsu）many prayers are gathering here. In this shrine " 市杵島姫命 " （ICHIKISHIMAHIMENOMIKOTO） is enshrined. This female god is the goddess of marriage and good luck. In spring, clam gathering is popular. In winter you can enjoy feeding waterfowls like seaguls and ducks. 蒲郡のシンボル竹島。 毎年年始は八百富神社へ初詣。 綺麗な日の入りも拝めます。 春は潮干狩りシーズン。屋台も出店して賑わいます。冬になると静かな海は渡り鳥たちの羽休めの場となります。鳶やユリカモメ達への餌付けも楽しい。

A quiet tiny island (I'd call it a mound, really) with its own foot bridge. At night the bridge is lit by amber-coloured lampposts. The small shrine on top is also lit, but has a eerie atmosphere, would recommend!

40 minutes by train from Nagoya plus 20/25 minutes walking from the station. A very beautiful island, a religious site. Calm and relaxing atmosphere. Lots of eagles on one side of the shore (amazing).
