有明海の鳥居/太良

約300年前（1693年頃）島に置き去りにされた代官が大魚（ナミノウオ）に救われる。 感激した代官は魚の名を取って「大魚神社」を建て、岸から約2丁（約200m）の海中に鳥居も建てたという。この鳥居は沖ノ島との間の鳥居であり、30年毎に建立する習わしが今も伝えられている。

TORII IN ARIAKEKAI/TARA TOWN

Ohuo Shrine was built by a local magistrate as a mark of respect for a Ohuo(big fish) that saved his life when he was deserted to an island. The shrine was named after the fish and the torii gate of the shrine was also built in the water 200meters off shore. Custom to rebuild the gate every 30 years has been handed down to this century.
