A very beautiful and peaceful shrine. We visited it in the early hours of the morning and the air was fresh and invigorating. The atmosphere was silent but full of promises. I recommend taking the family here for a visit.

The buildings are built as if they were assembled from blocks of wood and do not use nails. This is a way of avoiding collapse in earthquake-prone Japan. It is wonderful to see this technique, called KIGUMI, up close.

Was a misty day when we make a visit here... it gives another view of the temple.

Really stunning views of the city can be taken in from the top. If coming by car, it’s a fairly easy drive up. Otherwise, be sure to come before four while the lift is in operation.

An important Shrine in the Chikugo area. Just finished several years of restoration. Good views of Kurume from the top. I recommend hiking up.
