Kaminari Shrine, located in Miyairo, Asahi City, is a shrine believed to be a deity for protection from lightning, as its name suggests. Since ancient times, it has gathered strong faith from people as a protector of the region from lightning disasters. Many worshippers likely visit during the summer months when lightning is frequent. It is a place where one can feel the power of nature and the presence of a god that calms it. In contrast to the ferocity of lightning, the shrine grounds are enveloped in a quiet and calm atmosphere. The goshuin holds the divine protection of a god that calms the power of lightning and brings peace to people.
