Sumiyoshi Shrine

能感受到一絲絲莊嚴與清幽的神社，想必是守護小樽市民許久了，不會有太多的隔閡感同時又不會與你有太近的距離以保持專業，果然是日本正神的個性，門口的守護狛犬很可愛

從小樽出發巴士很好到，建議可以買一日公車票在小樽到處玩，不過只玩運河地區的話用走的就可以了

另外提醒一下一日公車票只能用在“中央巴士”線路，小樽市內還有JR直營路線（名稱：宮65）也可以坐，只是要另外付費不能用一日券

Feeling the solemnity and serenity of the shrine, it must have been guarding the citizens of Otaru for a long time, striking a balance between maintaining a sense of distance and professionalism. Indeed, it embodies the dignified nature of Japanese deities. The guardian komainu dogs at the entrance are very cute.

Starting from Otaru, taking the bus is a convenient option. I recommend purchasing a one-day bus pass to explore Otaru. However, if you're only exploring the canal area, walking is sufficient.

Additionally, please be reminded that the one-day bus pass is only valid for the "Chuo Bus" routes. There are also JR-operated routes within Otaru city (named: Miyako 65), which require separate payment and cannot be used with the one-day pass.
