History
Rooted in the sandy shore, this Hachiman shrine has long been the steadfast guardian of seafaring peoples. In the sound of waves, the prayers of countless navigators resound, reaching the divine heart and saving many lives. Those standing on the shore feel the divine breath in the ocean spray and find peace and assurance.
