    It’s an awesome and beautiful shrine during the summer! Plenty to see.

    They have many events and weekly markets held here. In April and May, there are many carps of flags over the parking lot due to Children's day on May 5th. The access from the nearest train station is not so bad, and recently it is getting so popular for international travelers to visit here and Kibitsu shrine, which is similar name but different Shinto shrine located a few kilometers away. If you rent a bicycle, you can visit both shrines easily and enjoyably.
