History

Uwatsu-hiko Shrine overlooks the waters of Uwajima, where fishermen have prayed for safe voyages and bountiful catches for generations. This shrine embodies the ancient maritime traditions of sea people who entrusted their fates to the ocean and the divine. The blessings of the kami flow through these waters, protecting all who venture forth.
