History
Anraku Onsen Jinja is a shrine situated in the blessed hot spring locale of the Kirishima mountain range. This place has long been cherished as a thermal spa, and the shrine was established by people grateful for the blessings of the hot springs. The spiritual power of the thermal waters is said to heal illness and purify body and spirit, and visitors come seeking the divine protection of the hot spring kami. Within this sacred ground enveloped by Kirishima's natural beauty, many people find health and peace under the kami's watch. As a shrine that has walked alongside the hot springs, it continues to be beloved by the people of the region.
