Beautiful shrine among old cedar trees

I think it is one of the “must see” locations in the Tomioka area. Usually uncrowded, you can enjoy the unusual placement of the shrine, down a long flight of stone steps. There are large old trees and well maintained decorative building to appreciate. The calming, centering feeling you receive from such places with our without spiritual belief is certainly worthwhile. Enjoy walking up the main stone steps in the front. Bring your camera.

Beautiful shrine in a beautiful location. They have an amazing martial art demonstration festival every year in May. This place is a power spot of Japan!

It's a cool shrine! Very peaceful when it's not New Year's/some big shrine holiday. And it's close to the train station, which is convenient if you have good timing with the train haha.

The shrine was neat. It was the first time where I had to walk down the stairs to visit the shrine instead of walking up a bunch of stairs. Its very small area. Not many people there on a Monday afternoon. The shrine is red. A giant Tori gate is near the entrance.
