History

Odate Naka Shinmei Sha is a Shinmei shrine that enshrines Amaterasu Omikami, the principal deity of Ise Jingu. Located in the center of Odate, it has long served as a source of support for the hearts of local people. Through the virtues of Amaterasu Omikami, it continues to bring light and blessings to this land. Cherished as the guardian deity of the shopping district, it watches over the region's development and the happiness of its people. Those embarking on new journeys appear to receive particularly strong divine protection.
