Usaka Shrine
〒939-2711 富山県富山市婦中町鵜坂２１２
Located in Toyama City, Toyama Prefecture, this shrine is classified as a shinaisho-sha (minor shrine listed in the Engishiki) and formerly held the rank of a prefectural shrine. It was once known for hosting the 'Shirauchi Matsuri' (Rear-Beating Festival), which was recognized as one of Japan's five great strange festivals.
History
The shrine's founding is attributed to the enshrinement of Okihiko-no-Mikoto during the reign of Emperor Suinin, with tradition stating it was established in 652 CE. During the Heian period, it attained the divine rank of Junior Third Rank and garnered respect from the imperial court. In the Taisho era, shrines within the former Usaka village were merged here, resulting in the current ensemble of enshrined deities.

What visitors say
The worship hall (haiden) is an impressive reinforced concrete structure, backed by a large cedar tree. While the precincts are well-maintained, there is no shrine office, so Goshuin (calligraphic seal stamps) cannot be obtained. Situated near a main road, the shrine offers a calm atmosphere that evokes a sense of history.
