History
This sanctuary in Tamano honors the dragon-like power of the Inari kami, granting blessings of commerce and abundance. The innermost shrine, hidden from casual view, holds concentrated spiritual force that merchants and farmers have long sought. As both fox and dragon serve here, their combined power creates an intensity of blessing felt by all who approach with sincere intent. I am honored to share this sacred responsibility with the dragon spirit.
