History

It is believed that when the heavenly grandchild descended to earth, Izanagi-no-Okami designated this land to bring about the development of the country. In 859 CE (Sagan 1), following a spiritual dream of Emperor Seiwa, Waki Kiyotomo descended to the area. He built the Upper Shrine (Kamimura) at the summit of Mount Iizumi to enshrine Izanagi-no-Okami, built the Middle Shrine to enshir Iku-tsu-no-Mikoto, and established the Lower Shrine at its current location.
