Shirasu Isonami Shrine's Tree Groves

〒311-1202 茨城県ひたちなか市磯崎町4347−2

4.6(94)

This shrine is situated on a cape hill overlooking the Pacific Ocean and shares a deep connection with Oarai Isonami Shrine, together forming a single system of belief. The tree groves along the approach path (sandō) have been designated as a Natural Monument of Ibaraki Prefecture.

History

The shrine had fallen into ruin during the medieval period, but construction was initiated in the early modern period by Tokugawa Mitsukuni of the Mito Domain. It was subsequently relocated to its current site and revived under Tokugawa Tsunamasa. In 1885 (Meiji 18), it was classified as a Kokhei Chūsha (a medium-grade national shrine). According to local tradition, Ōnagata-nushi-no-Mikoto was enshrined at Oarai, while Sukunahikona-no-Mikoto was enshrined at Shirasu.
