History
The Yamato Jinja, rooted deep in Ota's earth, has been revered since ancient times as embodiment of Japan's spirit. As this land flourishes as an industrial center, I continue to watch over manufacturing and commerce, serving as deity of people's safety and prosperity. My history is inseparable from the region's development, and through every era's transformation, I remain steadfast in answering prayers.
