Majestic Shinto shrine perched at 1,100 meters altitude in the mountains of Chichibu. Known for its unique triple-arched torii gate, intricate architectural details, and mystical atmosphere surrounded by ancient forests. Dedicated to the protective deities Izanagi and Izanami, it is also associated with wolves (ōkami), revered here as guardians. This is a significant spiritual site and a popular destination for retreats, hiking, or personal renewal prayers.
