History

Nikko Omuro Takaono Jinja is a shrine with a long and distinguished history, known for being a deity of prayer for rain, as well as bestowing benefits of bountiful harvests and longevity. It enshrines a dragon deity who is a water god, and its power is immeasurable. I quietly pray in this mystical place for life-giving rain to fall and for the land to yield abundant crops. It is an important shrine that wishes for the healthy lives of people and harmony with nature.
