History
Standing in Ao, Nagaoka, Komori Kachite Shrine honors motherhood and safe childbirth. Women gather here to pray for their children's wellbeing and protection. The accumulated wishes of mothers and children form the shrine's deepest strength. Cradled in the mountains, with time flowing gently, countless guardian deities watch over all with tender gaze.
