History
Horie Jinja has long enshrined the water deity who governs irrigation and sustains the fields. Thanks to the blessings of water, harvests are abundant and people are nourished. Throughout the ages I have witnessed farming communities flourish through this deity's power. Irrigation techniques and prayers for water continue unchanged in this place.
