Hayakawa Jinja

Hayakawa Jinja is enshrined on the banks of a clear stream in Saito City, Miyazaki, dedicated to the deity of the river that has blessed this land since ancient times. The waters have long nourished rice cultivation and sustained the lives of local people. Deeply rooted in the region as the guardian of agriculture, the shrine draws many visitors during the planting and harvest seasons to pray for abundant crops.
