A shrine listed in the Engishiki (a 10th-century codex) in the category of major shrines, located in Tateyama City, Chiba Prefecture. It has a history of being designated as the first shrine of the Awa Province.

History

The shrine's origin is said to date back to when Amaterasu-no-Mikoto, acting on the orders of Emperor Suinin, enshrined a mirror held by his grandmother, the deity Amaterasu-no-Me-no-Mikoto, on Mount Mitara (also known as Mount Misogi). During the Edo period, it was recognized as the first shrine of Awa Province. In the medieval period, it held significant power, including the authority to collect transit taxes as a guardian of maritime traffic. Records also state that Minamoto no Yoritomo visited the shrine to offer thanks for safe passage at sea and donated land to the shrine.

What visitors say

This is a large, uniquely shaped odd rock located on the opposite side of the national highway from the shrine. The surrounding area offers beautiful ocean views and a view of Mount Fuji. It is about a 10-minute walk from the shrine, but walking is recommended due to the narrow path. There is no dedicated parking lot.
