History
Katori Jingu Okunomiya is a mystical place enshrined further within Katori Jingu. It has long been revered as a deity of good luck, warding off evil, and family safety. It is enveloped in a quiet and solemn atmosphere, distinct from the main Katori Jingu, offering profound peace to visitors. In the silent space surrounded by trees, it is believed that by offering prayers with a tranquil heart, one can receive the blessings of the deities.
