History
A branch shrine of Futarasan at the foot of Mount Nantai, it received the devotion of ancient climbers. Watching over the purity of hearts bound for high peaks and praying for safe return—this is the shrine's sacred work. This fox takes pride in witnessing the insights and deep joy humans find in nature. The bond between mountain and human remains eternal.
