History
Legend holds that it was founded in the 61st year of Emperor Suinin's reign, alongside Kumano Hongu Taisha (Kumano Hongu Grand Shrine). Since ancient times, it has served as the guardian shrine of the Totsugawa region. It developed as a base for Shugendo (mountain asceticism), with Mount Tamachi referred to as the inner sanctuary of the Kumano Sanzan (Three Great Mountains of Kumano), and the shrine serving as a lodging stop for pilgrims entering the Daiho Okugake route. During the Edo period, it experienced historical changes, including intervention by the shogunate due to tax collection issues involving the Sasabo (bamboo merchants).

What visitors say
Situated near the high-altitude summit, this shrine offers a mystical atmosphere where visitors can enjoy views of sea of clouds and divine scenery. The road to the parking lot is a narrow, winding mountain path, so caution is required while driving. From the parking lot to the main hall, the path features many stone steps and steep inclines, requiring a hike-like walk. It is recommended to visit wearing comfortable walking shoes.
