What visitors say
The shrine is beautiful with cherry blossoms in spring and autumn foliage in fall, with the cherry blossom landscape including the adjacent park being particularly spectacular. The grounds feature a Temizuya (water purification basin), stone lanterns decorated with vegetables, and a well-maintained garden, all of which enhance the visit. After passing through the large main torii gate and climbing the stairs, visitors reach a dignified Haiden (worship hall) where Goshuin (shrine seal stamps) are available.
