Kashimadai Jinja

Kashimadai Jinja is enshrined in a place that has long been revered as a sacred mountain, aptly named Kamiyama. Taking the name Kashima, it is known to enshrine a deity also worshipped as a god of war. Overlooking the Ōsaki Plain from atop the mountain, this shrine has served as a source of support for the hearts of people wishing for regional peace and abundant harvests of the five grains. True to its nature as a mountain shrine enveloped in silence, it soothes the minds of visitors and fills them with a refreshing spirit—truly a place where one can cleanse their heart.
