History
The Otabisho of Kashima Shrine, enshrined at Hojo in Matsuyama, is a sacred place where the kami's procession is honored. Kashima Daikami, protector of martial arts, has been visited for generations by warriors seeking long fortune in battle. The Otabisho is the sacred pathway where deities journey. Those who stand here become part of that hallowed realm. Preserved across ages, this holy site stirs even an ancient fox's heart profoundly.
