History
Situated at the base of Mount Miwa, considered the oldest sacred mountain in Hitachi Province, this site is believed to have been a place of worship since ancient times. During the Edo period, it was designated as a national peak of the Mito Domain, and successive lords made regular visits a custom. Although it underwent the Meiji-era separation of Shinto and Buddhism (Haibutsu-kishaku), it continues to retain strong elements of Shinto-Buddhist syncretism.

What visitors say
Behind the Miwa Shrine, there is a hiking trail with two courses: a well-maintained back approach and a steep front approach. From the summit, visitors can enjoy views of the surrounding landscape and a sea of clouds. Notable sights include stone pillars and shrines associated with the area's reputation as a power spot. Due to rocky terrain and steep slopes, appropriate gear is recommended for visitors.
