Characteristics of Miehuger

Mihugar is characterized by a vertical hole in a large, oddly shaped rock.

Because of a hole that looks like a vertical crack, it has long been called Onna-iwa (women's rock) as a symbol of women.

At first glance, it looks like a hole in one large boulder, but it is actually the result of two rocks colliding.

Mihgar was formed more than 4 million years ago, and geologically speaking, the sea side is limestone and the land side is rock (tuffaceous conglomerate) formed by the accumulation of volcanic ash and volcanic stones.

Research has revealed that this is a strange rock formed by the collision of huge rocks due to crustal movement and other factors.

The energy of huge rocks colliding with each other and volcanoes is a mystery of nature.

Mihga is a place of great power that cannot be created by human power.

In addition to the female rock, Mihu Gah also has a small island called the male rock.

This islet is called Galasa (Crow) Mountain, and was named Man Rock because of its location opposite Mihugar.

Mihugar is located on the southern shore of Kume Island, and Mt. Garasa is on the northern shore of Kume Island (near Kaneshiro Port).

It is said that if couples worship both oddly shaped rocks, the power to bless with a child will increase, so visit both.

The first reason for Mifgar's popularity is that many people say it is blessed with children.

Couples visiting Kume Island on their honeymoon or mature couples who want to have children soon or have wanted to have children for many years visit Mihugaru and worship at the rock.

There are word of mouth throughout the country that some people have actually had children after visiting Mihga and come back every year to pay their respects.

There was also a word of mouth that if you go sightseeing in combination with Mt. Garasa, also known as Otokoiwa, which we mentioned earlier, your blessings will be enhanced.

Mt. Galassar is a small island shaped like a gourd.

Its appearance has been likened to a male symbol, and it is said that when men visit, they regain their confidence as men.

Many people who have actually had children have visited both Mihugaru and Mt. Garasa to worship, so if you visit Kumejima, please visit both.
