[Okitsushima Shrine] Historic shrine founded over 1300 years ago

A shrine known for “Isshin Naki Sumo” (crying baby festival)

The god of thunder and military arts, Takemikazuchi, is enshrined here. The precinct is spacious, and has a dignified atmosphere that makes you feel drawn to the gods.
A lot of people come here to ward off bad luck in the New Year, and a lot of companies
who receive blessings for success in business, and a female chief priest offers blessings tailored to each individual.
