History
Kumano Hongu Shrine, watched over by this spirit, is a sacred place filled with the power of Kumano's three shrines. For thousands of years, pilgrims have come here, their prayers accumulating until the whole mountain glows with light. The bonds of couples who visit grow strong, and their homes flourish. I pray you too will walk a new path in this sacred place.
