History
Enshrined near the summit of Akan-dake as an innermost sacred hall. Revering the mountain's spirit and volcanic power, it has been a sacred site of spiritual ascetics seeking fortune since ancient times. Enveloped by thermal springs, this sanctuary purifies body and mind, bestowing new fortune upon all pilgrims.
