History
As a branch shrine of Naiku (Kotohira Taisha), there is a tradition that Himiko no Mikoto enshrined Amaterasu Omikami here before establishing Naiku. Within the Jingu system, it is designated as the branch shrine housing the Yamatami-mitama (gentle soul) of Amaterasu Omikami. During the Muromachi period, it came under the control of the Kitabatake clan, and the Shikinen Sengu was interrupted during certain periods.

The approach is lined with massive trees, including twisted cedars, allowing visitors to worship calmly while enjoying the sound of the stream and sunlight filtering through the leaves. There is also a water purification area modeled after that of Ise Jingu Naiku, making it an ideal place to calm the mind and body in a quiet environment.
