Hakozakigu Shrine

Hakozakigu is one of the three major Hachimangu shrines, along with Usa and Ishimizu.

The main shrine, the hall of worship, the tower gate, and the stone Ichino-torii (first shrine gate), all in the 9-ken-sha-nagare-zukuri style, were rebuilt in 1546.

The Hana-teien (flower garden) is a Japanese garden with a karesansui (dry landscape garden) circulation system, and the flowers of the four seasons are magnificent.

The “Tama-Seseri” festival on January 3 and the “Hojo-e” festival from September 12 to 18 are especially famous.
