History

The hill on which the shrine stands is traditionally said to be Onokorishima (the Self-Coagulating Island), the site where the deities Izanagi-no-Mikoto and Izanami-no-Mikoto performed the creation of the land and the birth of the gods. Because the name is difficult to read, it is often written in hiragana as 'Onokorishima Shrine' on guide signs and road markers.

Blessings

It is said to offer blessings for matchmaking, safe childbirth, health and longevity, harmony between spouses, and the fulfillment of wishes.

What visitors say

The massive red torii gate is impressive even from a distance. Passing through the gate and climbing the stairs reveals a quiet, sacred atmosphere. The grounds feature Hyakudo Ishi (hundred-step stones) and Enmusubi no Sekirei Ishi (matchmaking wagtail stones), and worship is possible from behind the shrine buildings as well. The parking lot is located directly in front of the torii gate, and Goshuin (shrine seal stamps) are provided with a system for filling in the date.
