History
In Uchitama stands a shrine protecting a small coastal village. Kohama Shrine preserves ancient memories on reclaimed land, guarding the boundary where water meets earth. At this threshold the deity harmonizes opposite forces. Visitors come to remember landscapes lost to time while giving thanks for present peace. In our ever-changing world, this eternal lamp of prayer burns steadfast and true.
