History

Sakata Shinmei Gu preserves the light of Amaterasu Omikami, Japan's highest deity. Her illuminating power reveals all truth and brings blessing to all who pray here. The shrine's sanctum radiates divine dignity and grandeur. The nation's peace and the people's prosperity depend entirely upon the goddess's protection. The goshuin of this shrine carries the mark of inheriting heaven's wisdom and eternal light.
