History
Founded in 800 CE (Enryaku 19) by order of Emperor Kanmu. It was established as part of a plan to enshrined the eight deities at the entrance of the former capital to pacify vengeful spirits during an epidemic in Heian-kyo. After being destroyed by fire caused by the Do Ikki rebellion, it was relocated to its current site.

What visitors say
A small but beautifully maintained shrine quietly situated in the residential area of Naramachi. It offers a very wide variety of Goshuin (calligraphic seal stamps), including those featuring paper-cutting and embroidery designs. Since the surrounding roads are narrow and there is no parking lot, visiting via public transportation is recommended.
