History
In 1878 (Meiji 11), a branch spirit from the San-Kichi Shrine located at Mount Taihei in Akita Prefecture was enshrined at the eastern end of Toyohira River. However, due to concerns about fire prevention zones, the shrine was relocated to its current site the following year. In 1924 (Taisho 13), the annual festival date was changed to May 15. In 1977 (Showa 52), the main shrine buildings and the shrine office were constructed. In 1985 (Showa 60), the mikoshi (portable shrine) procession was revived after a 46-year hiatus.

What visitors say
Located in central Sapporo along subway and tram lines, the shrine is easily accessible. Many visitors come to pray for success in competitions and business ventures. During festivals such as the eve ceremony (yomiyama), the area becomes lively with food stalls and worshippers. Crowds are expected during Hatsumode (New Year's first shrine visit), so early morning hours are recommended for those seeking a quiet worship experience.
