History

This shrine stands on the shores of Lake Akan, a sacred place blessed with hot springs and natural beauty. Protected by the powerful earth spirit borne of ancient volcanic activity, it receives the hearts of those seeking healing through bathing. Enveloped in the warm steam of Nakamachi's hot springs, pilgrims experience purification of both body and spirit. Its blessings continue to flow through these sacred waters.
