Hatare Jingu (Hatare Grand Shrine)
〒861-3905 熊本県上益城郡山都町大野712
Located in Ono, Yamato Town, Kumamoto Prefecture, this shrine is also known as Hinomiya. It is well known for being included in the divine revelation regarding prayers for victory at the outbreak of the Russo-Japanese War.
History
The shrine's origins are said to date back to when Takeiwatatsu-no-Mikoto, the grandson of Emperor Jimmu, rested here while traveling to Aso, where he set up offerings and enshrined the heavenly and earthly deities. During the Engi era, Tomonari, the head priest of Aso, constructed the shrine buildings. In the first year of Tenyo (1154 CE), Tomotaka combined the worship of the Twelve Deities of Aso, establishing the shrine as the chief guardian of the Ono district. The current shrine buildings were renovated in the fourteenth year of Kyoho (1729 CE) by Hosokawa Nobunori.

Located in a deep mountainous area, visitors may easily pass it without setting navigation. The grounds feature steep stairs and lack barrier-free facilities, so caution is advised. Highlights mentioned include the solemn atmosphere, the five-colored human faces (Gosoku Ningenmen), surrounding spring water, and the availability of Goshuin (calligraphic seal stamps).
