History

Kazatachi Tera is located in Yamagata and, true to its name, is a special sacred place with faith related to wind. Since ancient times, it has been revered as the god of wind and has attracted the faith of people involved in agriculture and navigation. Though wind cannot be seen, it is an indispensable presence to life and has been deeply connected to people's lives. The wind that blows through the grounds brings new vitality to the hearts of visitors and calls in new winds of fortune in life.
