History

The shrine was founded in 1335 CE (Kenmu 2) when the fourth-generation head of the Yokojo sect, monk Donkai, enshrined deities from Suwa Taisha (Suwa Grand Shrine) in Shinano Province. It was relocated to Kazehaya-no-Tani during the Keian era (1648–1651 CE) and moved to its current location in 1699 CE (Genroku 12). Following the separation of Shinto and Buddhism after the Meiji Restoration, the shrine became independent from Seiko-ji Temple, though the two continue to maintain a relationship for festivals and other events.

What visitors say

Despite its proximity to a major thoroughfare, the shrine exudes a quiet and charming atmosphere. The grounds are relatively spacious and well-maintained, featuring the main hall, subsidiary shrines, and an office. Located near Yokojo-zaka, a famous section of the Hakone Ekiden course, the area becomes lively on race days, but visitors can enjoy a peaceful worship experience on regular days.
