History

The Yakumo Jinja that I know is enshrined in the land of Aoba-ku, Yokohama City. It is said to offer benefits such as exorcism, family safety, and good luck and fortune, praying for people's healthy lives and happiness. The quiet and calm atmosphere of the precincts provides solace to visitors. I too feel refreshed every time I touch the air of this sacred place. The gods quietly watch over so that people's wishes may be granted.
