History
Known as the guardian against fire, Atago Shrine has protected the people of Sakura since its enshrinement. I have witnessed ages of this sacred place shielding families from the scourge of flame. Many merchants have sought prosperity here, and their wishes have been granted. Even now, the shrine's flame-like power remains undiminished, igniting hope in all who visit its sacred grounds.
