The Formation of Enoshima 🌊 🌸🌺🌿🍃

One day in the 13th year of Emperor Kinmei's reign, dark clouds suddenly gathered over the sea, and the earth shook. 🌸🌺🌿🍃 A beautiful fairy appeared among the clouds, and soon after, an island rose from the surface of the sea. The evil dragon fell in love with the fairy at first sight and promised to cease its wicked ways, 🌸🌺🌿🍃 sincerely seeking her hand in marriage. Due to its relentless efforts and good deeds, the dragon eventually married the fairy. 🌸🌺🌿🍃 From then on, the five-headed dragon, along with the gods, transformed the island and protected the people living there. 🌸🌺🌿🍃 It is said that the dragon is the incarnation of Benzaiten. Even Tokugawa Ieyasu came to pay his respects here. 🌸🌺🌿🍃 During the Edo period, this place became one of the popular sightseeing spots for the people of Edo (now Tokyo). Thanks to Benzaiten's musical talents, it has also remained a haven for kabuki actors. 🌸🌺🌿🍃 🎭 #Japan 🌸🌺
