History
Asato Hachimangu is enshrined in the Asato district of Naha and is cherished as the guardian deity of the community. While Hachiman-sama is known as a war deity, here it continues to watch over the peace and development of the community. Located at Okinawa's gateway of Naha, its tranquil precincts calm the hearts of visitors. Loved by local people and protected with great care to the present day, walking alongside people's daily lives, this is a shrine that has endured.
