Hoshi Shrine

〒701-1602 岡山県岡山市北区真星1615

4.6(158)

Located at the summit of Mount Hoshigami in Mahoshi, Kita Ward, Okayama City, Okayama Prefecture, this shrine enshrines Mizenoo-hiko-no-Kami as its main deity.

History

The shrine's origins date back to the Nara period, based on a legend that three stars fell onto the summit of Mount Hoshigami, prompting villagers to build a shrine to worship them. There are theories that the three large boulders behind the main hall represent the stars, or that a meteorite is enshrined within the main hall.

What visitors say

This shrine has a simple and calm atmosphere that blends into the residential area. From the grounds, you can enjoy spectacular views of the Kojima Bay, Mount Kinpaku, and even airplanes. The road leading from the prefectural highway is narrow and steep, so please be cautious of oncoming traffic. There is parking space for several cars in front of the torii gate, allowing for a peaceful visit.
