Préfecture de Akita

Pourquoi y aller

• Plan your visit for October 11 if you want to experience the shrine's main annual festival, or visit on weekdays to enjoy the cedar-lined grounds and sacred waterfall with fewer visitors around.
• The shrine is 45 minutes by bus from Kasado Station on the JR Central Kansai Main Line, so plan your transportation accordingly and allow extra travel time if you're coming from Nagoya or other major cities in the region.
• If you practice aikido or martial arts, inquire about the shrine's martial arts hall and archery range (kyūdō) during your visit, as these facilities are available for practitioners but not always prominently advertised to casual visitors.
