Great Shrine. Cooling weather. Not crowded.

Came here on a late afternoon and it was raining on the way down. A serene place with a shop at the top that sells trinkets and 'talisman'. I bought some as souvenirs and hope for blessings as well.

This shrine requires more donation to maintain the architecture and do some refurbishment. Overall, I really do enjoy looking at different shrine architecture and landscape, so can’t complain. I honestly like hand written goshuin and they did for 2 shrines at the price of 500yen. Plus, they offer you some sweet treats too.

A picturesque Shinto shrine nestled in the forest on the foothills of Mt. Hakodate. The grounds are full of magnificent old trees and the entrance way is lined by beautiful cherry blossoms. It's a bit of a hike to get to, but definitely worth it for the peaceful atmosphere and the gorgeous old buildings.
