History

The exact date of founding is unknown, but the shrine is said to have originated from a small shrine (hokora) that once stood atop an ancient burial mound (kofun) within the grounds. It was formerly known as 'Shinmeisha' and served as the tutelary deity (chinju) of Nishidai Village. During the Meiji era, it was renamed 'Tenzo Shrine.'

What visitors say

Situated on a high ground in a residential area, the shrine grounds are enveloped in a quiet atmosphere. The layout features a staircase descending from the torii gate to the worship hall (haiden). The haiden is impressively constructed, and the grounds include numerous subsidiary shrines (sessha and matsuja). Notable sights related to folk beliefs, such as Danjinzuka (male genitalia stones) and a Fuji-zuka (small artificial hill resembling Mount Fuji), make it a pleasant place for a leisurely stroll.
