Morito Daimyojin

Morito Daimyojin is an ancient shrine with ties to Minamoto no Yoritomo, situated in a scenic location overlooking the sea of Hayama. It is said to have been founded when Yoritomo enshrined the Mishima Daimyojin here, and it received the deep devotion of the Kamakura shogunate's generals. The view overlooking Sagami Bay from the shrine's grounds is spectacular, with the sunset being particularly beautiful. As a deity protecting sea safety, it has attracted the strong faith of those in the fishing industry, and visitors continue to offer prayers with the beautiful sea as their backdrop.
