Byakko

This shrine enshrines deities from the Kumano Sanzan and has protected the Higashikanagawa area since ancient times. Although the exact founding date is unknown, it has been revered as a tutelary shrine that has walked alongside people's lives and is deeply rooted in the community. Within the grounds, trees exuding strong vitality grow, and a tranquil atmosphere flows. The enshrined deities, such as those for household safety, exorcism, good luck, and safe childbirth, are always close to people's wishes and watch over them warmly.
