Kumano Hayatama Taisha

Informati prima di partire

To start where Kumano worship began, visit Kamikura Shrine and the Gotobiki Rock first, then come down to Hayatama Taisha.

Eating and drinking are not allowed in the grounds; drinking water in summer to prevent heatstroke is fine.

Kamikura Shrine's goshuin, talismans and amulets are handed out at Hayatama Taisha's office; goshuin are given only in person, never by post.

The grounds open 6:00 to 17:00 and the office 8:00 to 17:00. Prayer services can involve a wait during festivals, so contact the shrine ahead if your time is short.
