History
Wakamiya Hachimansha is a shrine enshrined in Sakae, the prosperous downtown area of Nagoya, truly serving as the guardian deity of the city. Enshrining Emperor Ojin, it has long watched over this land. It has a history walking alongside the development of Sakae and has gathered the faith of merchants and working people. Even today, one frequently sees many businessmen and shoppers making brief visits in their spare moments. Despite being in the midst of urban hustle and bustle, it continues to maintain a serene atmosphere, which is truly admirable.
