History

The Itsukushima shrine enshrined in Kamienai-mura honors the water goddess and has served as supreme protector of those living by the sea since ancient times. The Sea of Japan's fierce waves calm before her merciful power, allowing fishermen to cast nets with confidence. The sea is mother. The reverence for this mother flows perpetually through this sacred land.
