Very good location with an interesting history. The monkeys illustrated here have the opposite positive meaning to those in Nikko - instead of see/speak/hear no evil, they encourage people to see/speak/hear good

The shrine is beautiful with very nice wooden painting and carving on the entire building. It can get very crowded during the new year week. There are a lot of street food stalls during this time. Some traditional Japanese Shinto ceremonies are also carried out around this time.

A beautiful shrine and a fanous place for UNESCO Chichibu Night Festival.

Beautiful shrine, one of the nicest I've seen. It is detailed decorated and surrounded by trees

Colorful yet had a very good vibe, despite not being that big. They sell omikujis with special ink so that when you get them in the water they become readable.
