What visitors say
Located in the center of Mooki Town, this shrine is characterized by its relatively large torii gate. Although the grounds are not very extensive, it offers various Goshuin (shrine calligraphic seal stamps), including seasonal designs and handwritten versions. It also features omikuji (fortune slips) and an exhibition room displaying the shrine's history. In summer, festivals are held featuring portable shrines (mikoshi) and mountain carts (yama), and visitors can enjoy seasonal flowers such as morning glories.
