History
Founded in 1028 CE by receiving a branch deity from Yasaka Shrine in Kyoto, it was initially known as 'Imamachi Gion Shrine.' In 1689 CE, it merged with Suwa Shrine, and during the Bunka era (1804-1818 CE), it merged with Hiyoshi Shrine. In 1928 CE, it was designated as a Koyasha (a shrine of local significance) and renamed 'Yasaka Shrine.'

What visitors say
Located within walking distance of Naoetsu Station, this Koyasha evokes the history of the town. The shrine grounds are well-maintained, and the decorative carvings on the worship hall (haiden) are a notable highlight. Please check in advance regarding the availability of Goshuin (shrine seal stamps) and Omamori (protective amulets), as this may vary by season.
