History
Shinjo Hachiman Shrine, enshrined at Azu in Kojima, is a shrine honoring the kami of victory. Ancient warriors visited this shrine before heading to battle. For centuries I have heard the strong wishes of people's hearts. The power of their prayers still ignites fire in people's hearts today.
