厳島神社

This Itsukushima Shrine in Naie, Sorachi District, Hokkaido, enshrines Ichikishimahime-no-Mikoto — the goddess of water, arts, and fortune. The name Itsukushima traces to the great Itsukushima Shrine in Hiroshima, whose water deity faith spread across Japan through bunrei (ritual transfer of divine spirit). Enshrined here during the era of Hokkaido settlement, the shrine has long served as a guardian of the local community. Its quiet grounds continue to watch over the daily lives of those who call Naie home.
