What visitors say
Situated in a quiet location surrounded by mountains, this shrine is characterized by its white torii gate. It features unique sights such as komainu (lion-dog statues) holding umbrellas and human-shaped purification dolls. The Goshuin (shrine seal stamp) is in a cut-paper style and comes with a handmade bookmark. Instead of a traditional hand-washing basin, purification skewers are provided, and clear guidance is available for visitors.
