History

Located deep within the Uji region, Okumiya Shrine stands as an ancient sanctuary enshrined in a sacred valley. Since ancient times, this location has served as a training ground for mountain ascetics seeking spiritual refinement through rigorous practice. The solemn blessing of the shrine's presiding deity continues to sharpen the spirit and guide all visitors toward righteous living.
