History
Known as the 'birthplace of Nikko,' this site is where Shodo Daishi, the founder of Mount Nikko, practiced asceticism. It has gathered faith based on the belief that tengu (mythical dog-like creatures), who serve as messengers of the enshrined deity, can ward off disasters.

What visitors say
The extensive grounds feature a well-maintained Japanese garden, which is particularly beautiful during autumn foliage season. This unique shrine includes a shukubo (temple lodging), allowing visitors to enjoy large tengu masks and a variety of Goshuin (calligraphic seal stamps). Due to its mountainous location, drivers should exercise caution on narrow roads and sharp curves.
