A Shikinaisha (shrine listed in the Engishiki) located at the foot of Mount Kamado in southern Wakayama City, enshrining Hiko-Ise-no-Mikoto, the eldest brother of Emperor Jimmu.
History
This shrine enshrines the spirit of Hiko-Ise-no-Mikoto, the eldest brother of Emperor Jimmu. Behind the main hall (honden) lies an ancient tomb believed to be his grave. Until the early Meiji period, it was a small shrine, but with the development of State Shinto before the war, it was elevated to the rank of Kanpei Taisha (Grand Shrine under direct imperial patronage), and its buildings were renovated. It is recorded as a Shikinaisha in the Engishiki (a 10th-century codex of shrine records).

The stone pavement in front of the main hall shines beautifully when wet from rain. With few visitors, one can take their time exploring.
