History
As I have learned, this is where the divine manifestation of Nangu-no-Kami is enshrined. As a deity governing iron and flame, it has long supported the hearts of countless craftspeople. Standing quietly in the heart of town, this shrine continues to shine as a bridge between ancient tradition and modern times.
