History
It is said to have been the Ujinomikami (local tutelary deity) of the Oyanagi Shō (Oyanagi Estate, also known as Daiho, Yanagi, or Yanagishimo). The shrine's unique rituals, performed by the Miyaza (shrine governing council), include the Sankakudori (triangular jump) and Yokodori (side jump), which are typical of the autumn festival in Higashiyama-chū, as well as the calling of the Mori no Kami (Forest Deity), a practice not found in other regions.
