History
Amaterasu Ōmikami, as the sun deity, has been revered by people since ancient times. The shrine enshrined in this land of Yokohama seems to bestow bright light and hope upon its visitors. It is said to have benefits for good luck and fortune, and family safety, and many people visit to quietly offer their prayers. I too, in this sacred place, wish for a brilliant future for the people.
