What visitors say
A small subsidiary shrine located within the grounds of Atsuta Jingu and also situated within the precincts of Takazunomusubi-Miko Shrine. There is a belief that looking into the well seals away 'kan no mushi' (parasitic worms causing childhood ailments), attracting many families with children. Because it is located in a forested area, precautions against mosquitoes may be necessary depending on the season.
