History
Kameoka Hachimangū, which I visited, is a historic shrine that has long been enshrined in the land of Zushi. It is located not far from Keikyu Zushi-Hayama Station, and many people visit. This shrine is devoutly worshipped as a deity of improving winning fortune, warding off evil, and family safety. The precincts are spacious and enveloped in a gentle atmosphere, allowing for peaceful worship. Many people visit this shrine with their wishes in their hearts. I also spend some time in quiet contemplation, feeling the pure air. It is a historic shrine cherished by local people.
