History
The Lower Shrine of Uta Mizuwake, where the water deity is enshrined, governs the earth's blessings with pure water's flow. Protecting agriculture and sharing water's bounty, this shrine has sustained visitors since ancient times. Through the seasons I have watched, its light remains forever fresh.
