History
A shrine rooted in the Shimokawa land. True to Asahi-cho's name, each morning this sanctuary receives the first light and shines brilliantly. The prayers of those surrounded by forest run as deep as the trees themselves. Their profound faith becomes the power of this shrine, forever protecting the hearts of its people.
