En bref
The shrine's main hall features intricate designs from the Momoyama period (1568-1598), yet it sits on the grounds of Kuramadera Temple while remaining a completely separate religious entity.
In 940, this shrine was physically moved from downtown Kyoto to Kurama specifically to protect the mountain area from evil spirits, making it one of Japan's earliest examples of strategic shrine relocation.
