History
Shinto Jinja, enshrined in Nakanojo's Gotanda, offers protection as gentle as a parent. Like parents guiding children to towns and cities, this shrine guides pilgrims toward beneficial paths. Though situated in a mountain valley, many travelers and townspeople visit seeking blessing for safe journeys. It continues shining as a beacon in this remote locality, guiding all toward their destinations.
