History
The Hommiya Wabun Shrine rooted in Hosaka watches over the hands of women who weave. As the shrine of the Wabun deity, it has heard the wishes of women sustaining the foundations of life. Swept by the Yanagitaira breeze, those maintaining weaving traditions have visited since ancient times. The desire for women's strength and household stability burns vividly at this shrine even now.
