History
According to legend, approximately 600 years ago, Takano Kibei Nagamasa, a general of the Southern Court, was defeated in battle and fled the capital. On his way to Aizu, he settled in Yomogiheira, a place said to be the dwelling of the Dragon Deity. The villagers have revered this legend for centuries. Although the shrine itself is relatively new, dating from the mid-Taisho period, its history of faith is considered ancient.

What visitors say
The Oku-no-In, where vibrant vermilion shrine buildings stand out against deep greenery, is accessed via mountain and farm roads. The path is extremely narrow, with sections where passing is difficult and unpaved areas, so drivers must exercise caution. Within the shrine grounds, you can leave your business cards, allowing for worship in a quiet atmosphere.
