Ōyamazumi, the god enshrined here, is considered the elder brother of Amaterasu (the sun goddess) and Susanoo, making this a shrine to one of Japan's most powerful mountain, sea, and war deities.
The shrine sits among ancient camphor trees that are between 2,600 and 3,000 years old, making them some of the oldest living trees in Japan.
