What visitors say
The shrine grounds are well-maintained, offering a serene atmosphere for worship. To the right of the worship hall, there is a distinctive large ema hall (shrine plaque hall) where local residents dedicate plaques to celebrate the birth of children. As there is no parking lot, it is convenient to use public transportation.
