Amaterasu Omikami

History

The Izumo Fudoki (Izumo Province Gazetteer) records that after Susanoo-no-Mikoto developed various regions, he came to this area to perform his final development, naming it 'Susanoo' and settling his own soul there. Since ancient times, it has been considered the main shrine (Hongu) of Susanoo-no-Mikoto. In the medieval period, it was known as 'Jusanjo Daimyojin' or 'Omiya Daimyojin,' and in the early modern period, as 'Susanoo Omiya.'

What visitors say

Located across from Susanoo Shrine, this is a quiet, compact shrine with a calm atmosphere. A beautiful river flows through the precincts, and next to the worship hall, there are platforms for viewing the river up close and a walking course along the riverbank. The grounds also feature mystical sights, such as a stone lantern with carvings of the moon and a rabbit, and komainu (lion-dog statues).
