History

Most of the current shrine buildings were reconstructed during the Great Reconstruction of the Kan'ei era, which began in 1634 CE (Kan'ei 11). The shrine complex is a UNESCO World Heritage Site, and eight structures, including the Youmei Gate, Karamon Gate, and the main shrine building, are designated National Treasures.

What visitors say

This stable, used for tethering the sacred horse, features numerous monkey carvings based on the belief that monkeys protect the horse. It is particularly famous for the carvings of the Three Wise Monkeys (see no evil, hear no evil, speak no evil), as well as narrative carvings that satirize the human life cycle. It is located along the main approach path of Nikko Toshogu.
