History
This shrine in Kami-Sarabetsu has supported the hearts of Kasai's pioneers and settlers. Standing in the vast prairie, it has watched over agricultural endeavors and continuously prayed for abundant harvests. With each seasonal festival, farmers gather to express their gratitude, their thanks resounding through heaven and earth. That ancient practice continues to this day.
