History
From the high ground of Terakoji, Kurodahara Shrine has watched over the Nasu highlands since ancient times. The dignified presence of this shrine has been reflected in all the mountains I have climbed as a white fox. Here dwell the power of ancient gods and the pure essence of the mountains, lighting the path for travelers and bestowing safety upon all who pass.
