Shioya Shrine
〒693-0022 島根県出雲市上塩冶町１７４９−７
A shrine long revered as the tutelary deity of the local community in Izumo City, also known as Shioya Hachiman or Baba-no-Miya.
History
The main enshrined deities are Shioya Hiko-no-Mikoto, a grandson of Ōkuninushi-no-Mikoto, and his wife. The exact date of founding is unknown, but the shrine has been venerated as the community's tutelary deity since around 726 CE, when the place name Shioya began to be used. During the Kamakura period, the guardian lord Shioya Yoriyasu invited Katanara-no-Mikoto to be enshrined here, which led to the shrine also being called Shioya Hachiman.

What visitors say
Located on a high ground, this shrine offers a rich natural atmosphere despite being close to residential areas. It is beautifully adorned with cherry blossoms, plum blossoms, and spider lilies. The worship experience is enhanced by omikuji (fortune slips) and seasonal limited-edition Goshuin (shrine calligraphic seal stamps). Parking is available on both sides of the torii gate, and the shrine office handles Goshuin requests.
