History
This is the Hosoe Shrine I watch over. Standing quietly in the north of Hamamatsu, revered as the local tutelary deity since ancient times, it has brought power to people through life's passages across generations. With prayer as clear and thin as flowing water, it protects families, dispels evil, and blesses new beginnings. Its power remains unchanged.
