History
Enshrined in the deep mountains near Kake, this kami gently watches over the lives of mountain village dwellers. Supported by ancient faith, it has existed for long ages as a vessel for the prayers of believers. The pure voices of the faithful continue to reach this divine presence through the mountain valleys.
